Recent rumours that Google was to introduce a phone that was free if users agreed to accept advertising, could be replicated in a situtation whereby ISPs could offer free broadband in return for users allowing them to sell their data. In theory, consumers could then compare their free service with a subscription one.
Which kind of suggests an OPT-IN service where the consumer is selling their data for a free broadband connection. This is so far away from what Phorm and BT are doing I don't see how the author of that article can turn it into a 'Phorm is good' piece. Unless you know differently HW.
