[Oct 2007 ISPA spokesman said] "ISPs cannot monitor or record the type of information passed over their network. ISPs are no more able to inspect and filter every single packet passing across their network than the Post Office is able to open every envelope. ISPs deal with many more packets of data each day than postal services and data protection legislation actually prevents ISPs from looking at the content of the packets sent," he added.

And that was also an interesting quote from Lord Triesman, member of the Government
Lord Triesman, the parliamentary Under Secretary for Innovation, Universities and Skills, said intellectual property theft would not be tolerated.
I've given it a whirl on BT Beta forums.
Should we be contacting the Lord Triesman and asking him if he feels just as srongly about Webwise/Phorm?
