PS. Should add, concealing copyright infrigement (eg, stripping evidence of copying like UIDs) is an aggravating factor in considering damages IIRC

Noted on London Stock Ex site, BT seem to be systematically buying voting shares at present, in advance of AGM. Around 2,500,000 a day if I'm reading right. (I know nothing about share trading btw, this might just be noise). |
This may be my Paranoia but it's better said than ignored & regretted later.
I've been seeing occasional format anomalies on some pages this week, apart from the spell where other posters were reporting blank pages before a Site loaded.
It may be that Phorm were looking for a way to hide the UID in so called "white space", which would probably cause such anomalies.
Since 121Media were very good at this, I would recommend some kind of MD5 checksum analysis, if BT actually announce a trial.
