I spotted this myself yesterday and was suitably annoyed. The idea that people were being tracked by their phone usage makes me sick.
That being said, I must confess to be more than a little curious as to exactly what was learned about the habits of the human being from this research. It seems like the human equivalent of tagging a group of fish and tracking their movements through the oceans
Anyway, just to get in clear in my head now, I have to avoid the following:
1) The internet, for fear of being profiled and targetted by Phorm.
2) Mobile phones, for fear of being tracked and used as a lab rat.
3) Credit cards, for fear of being tracked by government agencies ( I have seen this in movies so it must be true

)
Modern life is great innit?
