I have a few questions!

1. Is my browsing speeds going to be effected by what is going to be a proxy in disguise?

2. Also is their any law against targeting children with phorm as each logon would have their own cookie and the last thing I want is some company pedding adverts to my child?

Also here will be a way to get around the advertsing bans on TV before watershed. As the information will plainly show it's a child browsing if their visting websites like childrens bbc etc.

3. Also who will maintain these boxes and who will oversee any modification to what they can scan.

Will it Virgin or Phorm?

4. Will Virgin even have access to see what these boxes are doing?
