Re: Virgin Media Phorm Webwise Adverts [Updated: See Post No. 1, 77, 102 & 797]

So you're avoiding that I see. Gave you a chance to ammend your comment about trusted privacy think tanks being branded by yourself as amateurs (despite many of them being professional in their field, Nocholas Bohm springs to mind) but it's evident you wanted to gloss over that.

Interestingly though, on your stance of the 'claims' that the process is illegal is reasonable, they are indeed only claims at this stage. Much like they are only claims from others saying that it isn't illegal. The reason of course it will only be claimed until a court makes a ruling on the matter. However, until or if that event occurs, we only have claims coming from either side.

But it is interesting to note, the claims of Phorm / Webwise being legal seem to originate from the people within its operation (Phorm, BT etc, investors etc.) and the claims of it being illegal come from IT professionals, privacy and security advocates, human rights groups amongst others. Now call me a cynnic, when someone who is interested in only their own personal gain has an opinion that is in conflict with an opinion form another person who has the interests of community in mind, I don't have to think very hard before whom I sway towards.
