When Phorm was 121Media
This was a page advertising ContextPlus

Does any of that that sound familiar?

Next an interesting comment on a blog :- see the eweek reference

Next the same page from the wayback machine when ContextPlus shut down

And finally
What f-secure says about it all
http://www.f-secure.com/sw-desc/apropos.shtml

Reading between the lines I see the same smoke and mirrors then that I see today from Phorm. They may have changed their name from 121Media, but they still seem to see everything in a different light to myself and many others.
Reading between the lines they stopped just long enough to move in on the BT managment and started illegal trials. The legal advice must have taken all of one day to do max..

Another reading betwen the lines why they are not releasing the proof of the legal advice it is lacking on quality...

On a better note F secure still has them down as malware/spyware so BT customers could have problems if their AV is F Secure cant see them changing phorms status from malware..
