When we "know" exactly how it will work then you can make the judgement call. I know some will say not at any cost but others may not providing the safeguards are adequate or they put their own solution in place and some will not care at all.
Unless it is ruled out completely by the European commisison then it is highly likely that it will happen in some form whatever anyone thinks and most other ISPs are likely to follow suit. I am not for it but it may be something that we have to live with for cheap broadband.

You think this is cheap BB wake up I have a friend in Sweden he moved there from Wales 2 yrs ago his BB connection is 100meg down 2.5meg up nd he pays less than I do for package 2 with Virgin..
Anyone who does a little work from home occasionaly wil have all the works details picked up by this Phorm, It will take a simple script an a few seconds and without your knowledge Phorm could have your name address and telephoine number if it is stored on your PC...
Would you give your bank details to a person who claims to be a reformed thief?
Would you give a person who says he is a reformed Car thief your Jaguar keys?
Your PC has hidden around it personal details about you a simple line of script to those who are not programmers will look like it doesn't pose a threat but this script could reveal everything about you. Your PC holds more information than you would tell your bank manager about yourself and once Phorm has their cookie on your PC they can change the script rules you wouldn't know and your personal details are already for them to farm out to highest bidder. You wouldn't even know they had gathered this information since you had already accepted that they could gather info they just moved the goal posts a little.
good example is how your ISPs change tearms and conditions to suit them at any time or like how VM (or NTL at the time) added in the FUP policy all without prior knowledge the same can and will happen with phorm since he has patented it to do more than he is telling people this is the start once started it wil be hard to turn back and our freedom will be gone.
