I expect it's nothing more than VM saying at board level "hey, let's do nothing until we see if BT get away with their plans, if they do then we can go ahead, if they don't then we can walk away scott free and claim the moral high ground by telling our wonderful customers we won't have that nasty Phorm"
That's why I used the "if" word. And so much of what BT have done so far doesn't make sense that I have totally given up using "sense" as a criteria for judging their actions. Kent Ertugrul has been dragging them round the PR field by their ankles and they are STILL going along with it. He releases information when he wants to and lands them in a PR mess, he makes bold and dubious claims which they have to justify to their customers, he jerks them up and down on his string, and they just take it.
