Meanwhile I have been in contact with 2 other individuals who had no evidence of Phorming who have literally had their allegations ignored by the police, given the lack of evidence, the lack of personal loss and access to sufficient resources to investigate (public interest argument).
If you haven't since approached the police, might I ask why not?

Frank, you're in a fantastic position to highlight BT's (and by extension, Phorm's) abuse of browser traffic privacy.
Even getting news articles published about an impending court case would significantly raise our profile and gain more supporters.
Please get in touch with Nick Bohm (from the UKCrypto mailing list and legal counsel to the FIPR), Chris Williams (The Register) and maybe even Simon (with his PI hat on!) with a view to getting your legal case against BT moving.
If you need support or advice, I'm sure everyone here will be happy to offer whatever they can.

So let's stick to those folk who have a track record in fighting for privacy issues?
