I was talking with the chief executive of Phorm this week who told me that once something is stored you have lost control over it. Phorm has been the subject of an interesting article in the Economist recently which some of your Lordships may have read. It is a company on the cutting edge of what can protect the public. A bit of controversy surrounds its work because, with its client BT, it intercepted people's online business without BT customers knowing. But Phorm is certainly correct when it says that if consumers knew what was actually stored they would decide to opt for true anonymity online. This is what Phorm is trying to develop with major telecommunications clients on a global scale.
Oh for Gods sake. The Liberal democrats of all people. FFS.

OMG. This just shows what many of us knew already. Mr Ertugrul might be a ***** but in conversation he sounds educated and presents a confident, even very well spoken persona. Don't get me wrong here, I'm not saying he has/is, but he has the cash, he can get to high places and he can talk a good job.
I forget who raised it, but we do need letters to those Lords and Ladies.
Posting today:
- Letter to The The Interception of Communications Commissioner
(follow up to the response from a local Police directing that IoCC is responsible for investigating breeches of RIPA 2000)
- Copy of above to Lord Northesk (who asked The Home Office who is responsible)
- Copy of the above to Lord Spithead (from Home Office who said it is the Police or other relevant law enforcement agency's responsibility to investigate)
- Copy of above to Vivian Reding, member of the EU commission who might be interested in what our government is or is not doing to ensure the laws of the land are applied
- Letter to Baroness Miller of Chilthorne Domer expressing grave concern that she has apparently met with a 'Wolf in sheeps clothing' and simply referencing the history of Phorm as 121Media with a non-technical short explanation of what rootkits are.
Get writing all!!
