Can this technology detect and replace ad blocks running on this site. (And others such as mine)?
If so then it has little to do with protecting users from spam and more to do with pure greed. If 70% of UK users get ads served by their isp then I stand to lose a fair amount of money.

No you would sign up to this just as you would Google Ads. Its your choice as a web site to use the adverts or not. Still waiting for confirmation whether Cable Forum plan on using the ads once it goes live because if they do then they are as bad ad Virgin and the others.

There has been one (probably premature) press release from Phorm and the world and his wife have set themselves up as experts on the subject spreading wild rumours about what it can or cannot do yet nothing is agreed as yet. Wait for more information and then see. It may be a problem or it may not depending on how it is done. What BT do may be different to what CPW or VM do. Until we know more it is pointless people getting worked up about it.
