If the "Phorm" test is performed in this way; through an OIX web site, it may be possible to not use a cookie but, there will be NO way that the IP address of the Account Holder would not be known!

The fact that the redirect is/was a "direct" connection to an unknown & uncontrolled foreign website, would give rise to a very strong case of not compliance with D.P.A Rules!
It may just be a case of feeding out the rope gradually until we think BT have enough to strangle themselves with and hopefully, Phorm with them. It really is getting quite interesting.

I'm afraid I haven't a clue about all this technical IP stuff. So I hope some other BT customers are better clued up than me.

I've got that Dephormation addon but haven't a clue what all the logs mean. But I will gladly do whatever Pete tells me to and make logs available.
