talk about abuse of powers.

Give them the ability to abuse their power.. And they will.

This is what some people just don't seem to understand about why Phorm is hated so much..

No it isn't! It is the first steps on the way towards the acceptance of a system to watch/read/intercept/analyse then CONTROL YOU. Today the smarmy shysters like K~nt says "nothing to worry about". Then several years down the line through mission creep and extended function they have a system so entwined into every decision and thought you make, they will literally be able to target an individual and control them through various means we cannot even comprehend today. K~nt will do deals with anyone and do anything for money, if you think the thousands of people abused by councils throughout the UK using RIPA is a problem now imagine how they will abuse 'citizens' when K~nt offers them Webwise+ (millions)

Thanks to people like Stratis Scleparis former CTO of BT (now CTO of Phorm) abusing his position to beta test an illegal spying system at BT then jump ship to Phorm so he can overlook the smooth transition of WebSpies without being questioned or challenged. Thanks Stratis you back stabbing greedy money motivated b~stard.
