I moderate all comments personally. The problem being SPAM with is ironic considering I am taking a position which kind of defends the use of technology to send behavioral targeted ads.
I have accepted all comments I saw to be non abusive (which I am glad to say was most of them) and argued my points back. I will continue to do so in the spirit of an open debate to any comments on my own site. I am particularly interested in Alexander Hanff's comment regards the legalities because I'm no lawyer and I'm assuming he is based on his comments.
I did however research the technology before making my post.
My interest is not "to get more work" for myself as someone commented - I have plenty to do already. It is to put my view across and get the opposing view back. It is important for the online industry as a whole that people like myself give our point of view because the way I see it all of our futures rely on it. A balance between what is fair and transparent needs to be struck. I already took the stance that BT were appalling in how they handled this and I stand by that. They have frightened a lot of folks and that is not a good thing for the industry as a whole.
I do however have doubts that what they're doing is illegal although certainly their ethics are in question.
