I don't know how big Marketing Week is in the advertising sector, but if it's widely read, this is good.

"Prior to the ICO ruling, Phorm was expecting to operate on the basis that all customers of an internet service provider were enrolled and users would actively have to opt-out."
And that's how they must have been pushing it to potential advertisers.
