Just found this on the VM newsgroups....

have just been contacted by a Virgin media rep on my mobile - whilst out
shopping so not particularly convenient - he confirmed that Virgin Media
would soon be implementing Phorm (no date given). When I asked if it was to
be opt-in or opt out - he said everybody would be automatically opted in and
he didn't think there was a way to opt out. He also professed no knowledge
of the recent statement from the Information Commissioners office. No time
for a long discussion as I was in the supermarket - but does anyone have any
comments?
