Lightbulb Re: Virgin Media Phorm Webwise Adverts [Updated: See Post No. 1, 77, 102 & 797]

Alexander's speech on Tuesday night has clocked up 208 downloads. In the 22 hours 45 minutes the 135Mb of video files has been online, 34.3Gb has been downloaded.

The videos and a brief explanation can now be seen here as well as the Divshare locations. Please Reddit, Digg, Stumbleupon, Facebook, blog or whatever else you can do to publicise this page rather than the Divshare locations - I'm told there's better bandwidth.

A little humour, inspired by Ravenheart and based on Deep Purple mk III's song Burn...

Phorm (with thanks/apologies as appropriate to David Coverdale, Ritchie Blackmore, Glenn Hughes, Jon Lord and Ian Paice)

"My net's gone to pot
I don't understand
At 20 Meg my speed should be grand
People are saying my privacy's damned
Yet Virgin Media's statements are bland

My screen's got these ads
From where I don't know
Who's my ISP telling where I go
A little research
Ask some techies I know

All I hear

Is Phorm

They didn't believe
All of Kent's words
He said "You can trust us
Now that we're rephormed.
We might have been bad
but not any more."

The techies laughed
At the claims of Phorm

BT lied and tried to mask
Secret tests with Phorm
Their users weren't asked
When the truth came out
MPs were aghast

At BT

And Phorm

You know the ICO
They would not do a thing
You know the ICO...
*whispers* Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing

*guitar solo*

Dr Richard said that laws
Had been broken by BT and Phorm
And Alex said so too
*whispers* But you know the ICO...

*keyboard solo*

The web's gone to pot
And we all understand
The government's complicit
The Home Office is damned

By doing nothing
Played into Kent's hands
Our privacy's dead
There's blood on their hands

Our warning came
They didn't care
Rights were violated
They stood and stared

By then it was too late
No one was spared

And all because

Of Phorm"

There's a song called Stormbringer that just begs to be transphormed... Phormbringer!
