I started an index to specific posts in this thread over in the 'apathy' thread. feel free to add to it. It is time consuming but could be considered worth it.

You should be aware that I have already started this, you actually posted in the apathy thread yesterday when this forum was locked. feel free to add to the index of links already there. |
what is really needed, given its not just Phorm here, we could do with a one stop shop usable forum "wiki" that can take all this (and the other) threads information, any (non?)member if their in the mood, will be able to update this information whenever something comes to light, keeping an eye out for people that want to remove/subvert the known facts placed there for their commercial gain OC.
how about it Paul,Mick etc is there room for a wiki here, or perhaps at Alexanders NoDPI site would be the better choice ?.
BTW, looking for those other companies

heres the names of those other projects that need looking into, to trace their personels old Affiliations with any old spyware/adware or other connections, and not to forget the related tech docs to see how they are doing their intrusive datamining and perhaps breaking YOUR not for comercial use copyright notices etc.

Steve:
The company I talked about before, Phorm. There's a company called NebuAd,
one called Front Porch, one called Adzilla, and..."
"Steve:
Yeah, nebulous ads or something. Okay. And there's something called Adzilla and
something called Project Rialto. So NebuAd, for example, they say to site publishers, and this is jargon taken from their promotional material, they say
"NebuAd observes aggregated consumer activity across any site on the Internet without collecting and using any personally identifiable information about the consumer. NebuAd combines this [indiscernible] wide view of pages navigated, searches performed...."
So they're seeing
what searches you do. They're watching, essentially they're in your click stream. All of these companies, every one of them is installing equipment in the ISP's facility."
perhaps you had better go grab and archive that tech information before it disappears.
Project Rialto is interesting
perhaps his "My ads link:" needs special focus here in the future,
the Iphone and his "pinball" grabed my eye,
but more so the relationships with the mobile data and the Olympics.
is there a hint (more like a mega signpost shouting "this is our Next BIG prospect" 
)that all these DPI Interception for profit companys are going to converge on these and other large upcoming events, and use these sport events to Unlawfully mass collect, collate , and Process all your (mobile) datastreams and make their unlawful commercial "derivative works" for profit ?, thats a LOT of data in one place to be tracked back to your homebase later perhaps....
