Anybody see the irony in this? People are (quite rightly IMHO) up in arms about the ISPs and Phorm 'stealing' OUR data, but they (maybe not the same peiple TBF), are also up in arms about attempts by the ISPs to stop US stealing other people's data!

Personally, I have no objection to attempts to stop illegal file-sharing, but I have STRONG objections to Phorm stealing MY clickstream data. Let's not be hypocritical about this.
