JMHO.

I've just watched Simon's bit (I'll watch the rest in the morning) but I'm not sure how you came to the conclusion that he thinks Phorm's system as proposed is acceptable. He seems to me to be saying that a system could be devised that would be acceptable and within the law that would enable Phorm to do business. And I think he's right and IMO would have to start with 'no interception without explicit consent from all parties in the data exchange'. This would be difficult to implement, is not what is currently proposed and I think - well pretty much know - would not work as a profitable business model so Phorm would phail.
