[EDIT: I've removed the first couple of comments here as the post that I was responding to has been deleted. The rest of this post still makes sense (to me at least) if I explain that it concerns various suggestions not to respond to certain posts. Hope that's clear - Pete]

If we're not careful we play right into Phorm PR's hands - they've already tried to present those opposed to Webwise as a mob or as "Alex and his followers". This is only done so that they can represent us all as a single entity rather than as the many individuals with independant minds. There's a big difference between co-ordinated and controlled.

Having someone like HW here gives us a chance to dispell the myths and spin coming from Phorm HQ because his gullibility forces him to repeat all of Phorm's weak arguments and empty PR here. He plays into our hands and having him here is one of the best things that could have happened because everytime he posts more of Phorm's tripe it is quickly and decisively shown to be baseless and anyone visiting the forum will see just how empty Phorm's ideas pot really is.

His posts do more damage to Phorm's image than any number of posts saying "I don't want Phorm" and a few words of encouragement each day is a small price to pay for his invaluable assistance in promoting our cause.
