Re: Virgin Media Phorm Webwise Adverts [Updated: See Post No. 1, 77, 102 & 797]
A possible result - my MEP, Gary Titley, has replied to me to the effect that he is submitting a written parliamentary question to the Euoropean Commission; apparently he's had a number of constituents writing to him about Phorm. We appear to be getting somewhere.
Also, I queried the IronKey team about the version of Firefox they use - it can be updated/upgraded in the same way as the standard version. So I might just buy one and thus effectively opt out to an extent about which Virgin et al can do absolutely nothing. They try to break military-standard encryption, they'll still be at it when the sun explodes.
Or I may still switch ISPs. But I have a nasty feeling that I'm nowhere near an exchange and thus ADSL will be slow, so I don't want to switch. IronKey might be the best compromise for me. Then again, I have plans to move anyway, so I might end up somewhere more suitable.
It all depends on Virgin - lord 'elp us!
