There are lots of reasons to hate Virgin over Phorm, but those cookies are not (yet) reason enough.
They're created by Dephormation to indicate to Phorm a wish to opt out. If you see a UID corrupted with a message like "RespectMyPrivacy" you can be sure its not Phorm.
Whether Phorm take any notice is a different question, and whether the Information Commissioner Richard Thomas would assist if you subsequently found you were being profiled is sadly a foregone conclusion.
So, don't panic. But don't rely on Dephormation either. If Virgin roll out Phorm, its time to move to an ISP who respects the basic need for security, privacy and integrity of your communications.

Why not give it a go yourself...? Its vital that everyone gets stuck in to this. If you need help with an article you'll get it.
