Its more personal even than your IP address.

UID is an abbreviation for User Identifier (in Phorm's own terms).

Its obviously a personal identifier. Why the ICO can't see this I don't know. Its either because they are very stupid, or simply can't understand what Phorm are doing.

I sympathise. I too have perception problems. I can't see the difference between ICO and a chocolate fireguard, an ashtray on a motorbike, and a one legged man at an arse kicking contest.
