BT and Phorm to my mind know this is a non-started and are looking, I would imagine, for a compromise which allows them to prove to the ICO that it is "opt-in" whilst actually getting enough customers to make it worth while, i.e. coming up with a fudged definition of opt-in.

correct me if i am wrong but is it not the profiler that does the cookie checks? if so all traffic has to pass through the profiler and therefore is intercepted whether you accept the new contract or not,
hmm, interesting for those of us who do not intend to accept it, as we will not have given BT permission to do anything different with our traffic i feel some legal letters heading to BT the moment they start messing with traffic
