I would not expect or accept any 3rd party interference, for whatever reason, with the first four so why should it be thought of as even possibly acceptable that a 3rd party could be introduced to my PAID FOR internet connection?

Not only that Bobcat but the ISPs themselves have often argued that they are just a "mere conduit" when it comes to their dealings with the RIAA, MPAA etc etc. They argue that they should not and cannot be responsible for what people do with their connections and use this "mere conduit" argument in defense of that. Contrast that with all this Phorm malarkey and the layer 7 DPI kit and it blows a huge hole in that argument.
