Speaking of security gurus - you may have heard of Bruce Schneier. He's a bit of a heavyweight in the IT security world. He releases and monthly newsletter on security.
His website can be found here:

I was surprised to find out that he is 'Chief Security Technology Officer' of BT. I wrote him an email,
before I knew this fact and asked why he hadn't written any articles about Phorm. He replied that the technology was 'not particularly interesting'.
Technically, this may be true. However, he also writes about all sorts of stuff relating to the intersection of technology and privacy and social issues - which is why I was all the more surprised at the time.
In light of the new information, I wouldn't be surprised if his reticence has anything to do with his position. Though this is mere speculation on my part.
