Re: Virgin Media Phorm Webwise Adverts [Updated: See Post No. 1, 77, 102 & 797]

While all allies against Phorm and such like interceptions are welcome, I think we'd be wise to look any party political gift horses very carefully in the mouth.

It is amazing how reliably oppositions who have campaigned for privacy while out of government suddenly forget about it when they are handed their red boxes and nuclear codes. I suspect it is the result of the little chat that the resident spooks have with them on their first day in office.

Remember also - you can't write to David Davies as an MP any more, so you will need to find out his constituency address etc. The theyworkforyou.com group of websites etc. won't work either if he has resigned. And he will be having to pay for his own stamps for the next six weeks so maybe you won't get a reply either.

But as a source of hot air about privacy he may have his uses. While it suits him. Just handle with thick gloves and keep at arms length.

I use an MVPS hosts file which has a long list from Omniture. BT are using them on some of their main bt.com sites - touchclarity being one of the entries.

I think they are just the ordinary sort of tracking cookie.
