Cost's the ISP's plenty though to defend. |
You've got it..!
You can claim as much or as little as you like. And stay within the limits of the small claims court (initially).
Long term we've been chatting over on badphorm about a community billing system (like Peforming Rights)... creative people join and get a royalty cheque every month.
If you run a big site, eg cable forum, with thousands and thousands of hits a day... you need to talk to a proper lawyer because you could be due a very very big cheque.

One last push please, especially welcome clicks from talktalk users... haven't had any so far (or the script needs a twiddle). If you've clicked already, please click again, a few times for good measure...

To recap, this page demonstrates the ability to log royalty billing information for Phorming ISPs. The debug link sets a temporary Phormalike UID cookie (won't opt you into Phorm or anything nasty like that, don't worry) used to mimic Phormed users.
No invoices will follow.
I plan to provide public code shortly. Then retire to the Bahamas on the income from my web site (at £100/page impression for unauthorised commercial copyright violation).
many thanks.
Pete
