So if she thinks the US are going to sit back in the current light of things and allow the ISPs (run by the same telecoms companies) to wire-tap for commercial use, when the President himself is being chastised for illegal wire-taps, she has another thing coming.

It would actually be more difficult to roll Phorm out in the US than it would in the UK right now, why do you think they have targeted the UK first

Probably my fault as I did in one of my posts there raise the spectre that phorm may find it easier in the US than the UK. Will make sure to include your points in a post there if no one has beat me to it. Get some sleep, alexander
