Deception, Blackbeak, is what Phorm and Webwise is ALL about.

It has to be sold to consumers using deception because there is very little good to be gained by the consumer and plenty to lose. That's why Webwise has been and will continue to be "sold" as giving users security with its anti-phishing piece (the anti-phishing alreday freely available in IE7 etc and therefore just not needed)

oh-oh... we're goin to be victims of their trial again?

http://business.timesonline.co.uk/to...cle4137799.ece

After a troubled beginning, Phorm’s time may finally have come. The firm tracks the websites that internet users visit and serves them relevant display advertising. So far Virgin Media, Talk Talk and BT – where the latest trial of the technology begins this week – have signed up, keen to get a slice of the online advertising pie.

Significant concerns about Phorm remain. A 20% slide in its thinly traded, volatile shares this year stems from the fact that it is a long way from delivering on its promises. Phorm’s sales are still negligible.

However, the talk is that boss Kent Ertugrul will shortly sign up an overseas internet service provider, too.

Whether his business model gains traction or not, the shares look ready to bounce back.
Info clearly missed by focusing on a Blog and as many have stated the good info is here ,and I can only apologise to zwade that his first and impotant post went unoticed lets keep it tight and read everything.[/quote]

not "Info Clearly missed" mearly to many other things to be doing, and actually doing them in relation to this ISP/Phorm/DPi matter, not just the blog,after all that was old news to me #8895

i have read those posts and infact i did manage to make time to comment on the timeonline here #8968

also spit reading several of the newer posts pages and did intend revisiting when time allowed, 61 web pages open right now (advanced Browser)mostly Phorm related right now....

Hi, I had an idea about a World War 2 poster but I could not paste it (not very good with this sort of stuff!) I was looking at "A Walls Have Ears" type thing and came accross this. (below) Perhaps it could be modified by some clever person (copyright permitted) for our cause. Here is the link -

" Idea....

that is indeed turning out to be one of our best PR plans as time passes.....

theres a mass of WW2 propaganda that puts todays adverts creators to shame, that our artists can indeed use, and take inspiration from for any moden day (so called) soundbite...

and finally OC theres that payed bloke on the tv that cant agree with what Phorm say, that being 80/20Thinking Simon and his interesting posts below
