Re: Virgin Media Phorm Webwise Adverts [Updated: See Post No. 1, 77, 102 & 797]

Just come across this
http://www.lancs.ac.uk/iss/rules/cmisuse.htm

I particularly like the inference from Example 1
Quote:
Example 1, Unauthorised Access to Computer Material.

This would include: using another person's identifier (ID) and password without proper authority in order to use data or a program, or to alter, delete, copy or move a program or data, or simply to output a program or data (for example, to a screen or printer); laying a trap to obtain a password; reading examination papers or examination results.
In my head the webwise system is using another person's id to get the data from my password protected systems - in breach of the computer misuse act?
