The cookie based opt-out is a flawed idea from the start because as I understand it, your browsing data still gets profiled/mirrored/processed to some degree by the Phorm system. We only have Phorm's assurances that nothing is done with or to that data.
To my mind there is only one valid and acceptable opt out implementation - a network based one where customers' data goes nowhere near any system such as Phorm.
That's what I've repeatedly pressed for in my correspondence with Virgin Media and would urge all BT, VM and TT customers to press for as well.
