I disagree that "Non LLU ADSL ISPs may be subject to PHORM" because they use BT Wholesale whereas the PHORM equipment will be in BT RETAIL hands, which is totally seperate as they are seperate companies. If the PHORM equipment was to be be installed in BT Wholesale, then that would be a major concern as every ISP apart from VM Cable would be affected.
