If you are going to say that you still don't trust them, then one wonders if you could ever trust anyone or any commercial organisation ?

And if there are any shenanigans, then BT etc will be the first to scream as it is their reputations that will be on the line.

Harping back to Phorm's background is getting a bit turgid now. The company is rather different now and has a hugely heavyweight board that would not be involved in anything inherently dodgy.

Wildie - very happy that you don't see the ads, but without the revenue generated by them, the board would obviously not exist would it ?
hamster, if you bother to read the E&Y report you will see it was conducted according to US law not UK, also it was only a process audit, not an audit of the actual system,

so it effect it was an audit of what phorm said they will do not what they actually do

which means most people in here will probably use it to line a litter tray

How ironic.

Perhaps if the site owners signed up for Phorm they could have more targetted ads that would be better for the blood pressure of the regulars.
and WHY is there not a virgin logo on the webwise page if virgin are so committed to phorm as phorm say, but virgin saying only interested and NO CONTRACT in place
