There are better ways to do it rather than pimping peoples data.
Increase prices, stop rolling out unachievable speeds, stop giving away 'free' broadband.
We would all like something for nothing, unfortunately it can't realistically happen.
Why do we need all this bandwidth and speed? When broadband was first launched we had the dizzy speed of 512k, it was perfectly adequate at the time.
Now, because the media want to deliver streaming video and TV it has to be faster and faster.
The iPlayer is blamed for the bandwidth bottleneck. then along comes c4 and itv on demand.
Well maybe the media should be stumping up some cash to improve the delivery medium? (this isn't the place for that debate)
data pimping is not the answer
Exit Phorm stage right..... and keep on moving.
