If you follow the thread you will come to an exchange between myself and Cowherd regarding the take up of WebLies by Phorm****.

Cowherd gives his estimate to be ">50% opt-in" whereas I state the takeup will be very VERY small, a figure supported by CF forum
~ 96% say Ph**k off
~ 4% yes please, and can you take a dump on my dinner plate while your at it.

Q) Do you want to join Webwise for free and receive anti-phishing protection and more relevant advertising?

A) 90% say "yes please" as they bend over and drop their metaphorical pants.
