Sure, in the big scheme of things Phorm is relatively containable. I'd be a liar if I didn't admit that the prospect of mandatory population-wide DNA and biometric acquisition, wholesale data matching, ubiquitous identity demands, comprehensive government profiling, expanded police and security powers and mass pacification of the population weren't occupying my mind somewhat, but that doesn't mean I treat Phorm with any less regard as a privacy issue.

But getting back to the "minor" matter of Phormscum, even you must appreciate peoples absolute horror of having the
Intra-ISP Spyware parasite installed at the connection entry point of the Internet... At least with the likes of Double-click and Google we have a chance of escaping their predacious stalking/profiling... With Phorm at the starting gate there is no escape.
Simon whatever you do now you will be damned unless Phorm is completely destroyed and you come back with some clever post-analysis explanation of your privacy stratergy. How did you ever put yourself in this most unenviable position, surely if you didn't have to provide yourself a living and had enough money to be completely independent you would be on this side of the line attacking Phorm for the **** malware parasite that they are.
Are you going to "Opt-in" when Phorm is available on your home Internet provider?
