B) Your internet connection will be intercepted by a company associated with nasty spyware with BT's permission. This company could have access to everything you watch and type online. Big brother could be watching you! Unless you prevent this now, you cannot stop it happening once it is in place.

I am sure that most of you could come up with better examples than I but am I alone in my thoughts? Your comments please?

Unfortunately, even for point B, most of the public would say 'whatever'.
Looking at the Downing Street petitions (not available at the moment), what gets the votes?
Saving money (Fuel duty and costs).
Patriotism (Ghurkers and Red Arrows).
We can't hit joe public with money saving ideas but how about hitting the patriotism side?
e.g. It's rude, it's not British. We don't do things like that in this country.
Perhaps some posters:
A Guardsman : "Phorm - He wouldn't stand for it".
A flight of Spitfires : "They would soon shoot Phorm down"
A flotilla of warships : "Phorm is sunk"
I can't do art, but I know there are people here who can.
EDIT : I see Pete is already there!
