posted a generic web notice, will cableforum be placing something like this here?

"
New section added to my website's Legal Notices

After taking a little bit of advice, I've added the following to my website's legal notices page. Takes any doubt out of me giving any implied permission to profile.

"Profiling.
With the exception of recognised search engines as part of their standard service in directing Users to their first page on this Website, We give no permission, implied or explicit, to any service seeking to intercept or profile any internet traffic between this Website and any Users.

Any service seeking to intercept such traffic without prior written authorisation from Us shall be deemed to be making an unlawful interception."
You have to remember a bot is not intercepting. It is requesting just like a user does. If it is not an authenticated user then it will only be able to view the public pages. Phorm will view all traffic, even the authenticated stuff.
