To the uninitiated The Register article has just been posted on ukcrypto mailing list, where the likes of FIPR and other respected academics may discuss the legal implications.

The list archive is publicly readable, so those wanting to follow any legal discussion on this can do so here:

I'm shocked that this latest revelation appears to have included some form of injection of JavaScript into pages at a network level. Although it happened nearly 2 years ago which reduces the likelyhood of logs being around to prove the trial, should anyone wish to start proceedings against BT.

Around the discussions on whether the action was legal it would be interested to know what evidence The Register has in its posession!"
