"...
Anti-phorm protesters will be at BT's AGM next month, and will also be demanding police intervention over Phorm's technology trials with BT (although I imagine it highly unlikely that will result in action simply because of the complexity of the legal issues and an under-resourced police force).

This battle is proving to be another demonstration of just how hard a small but motivated group of campaigners can hit major corporates when they feel their privacy has been breached. BT's handling of protesters is going to be a tipping point for the battle, so keep an eye on the news on July 16th."
