Some big news in the press today re: DPA. Some may find it strange that an article about paparazzi taking photos of J K Rowling's son might be relevant to Phorm but let me explain why it is relevant.

The Judge has ruled that if other laws relating to privacy have been breached then as a result the DPA is breached as well as the processing of any data which has been obtained through a breach of a another law (such as RIPA, CMA etc etc etc.) that processing becomes unlawful under the DPA.

This is a pretty big story, it will be interesting to see more legal analysis coming out in the next few days on it.

Now lets see ICO try to wriggle out of that one...
