Simple question. PLEASE ANSWER.

As I posted above section chaper1 section 1 of RIPA states

Chapter 1 states the following:-

------------------------------------
Part I Communications
Chapter I Interception
Unlawful and authorised interception
1 Unlawful interception

(1) It shall be an offence for a person intentionally and without lawful authority to intercept, at any place in the United Kingdom, any communication in the course of its transmission by means of—

(a) a public postal service; or

(b) a public telecommunication system.

(2) It shall be an offence for a person—

(a) intentionally and without lawful authority, and

(b) otherwise than in circumstances in which his conduct is excluded by subsection (6) from criminal liability under this subsection,

to intercept, at any place in the United Kingdom, any communication in the course of its transmission by means of a private telecommunication system.
-------------------------------------------------

As PHORM intercepted a (b) a public telecommunication system. And Interception is illegal under the act, In what way to you think Phorm is legal.

Please note this question is not about personal data. So please dont post the usual ..."we donet keep bla bla bla"....

You Intercepted , as stated by BT. So why do you think the intercept is legal.

Which QC provided you with legal advice.?

Thank you
