Its complicated. Allegedly Financial Times and others have a stake in this scandal. Even the Grauniad were involved until recently. Phorm have sold them a fairy story about advertising revenue, without considering 'frivolous' details like human rights, regulations, and the law.

The only daily paper that covered it in some real depth were the Daily Mail, but they've gone very quiet lately.

Contrast with Chris Williams amazing coverage on the Register. The guy has done a stunning job of exposing BT. See here; Net think thank: Phorm is illegal
