My favourite Phormism. Even if we took Phorm's word for it that it is less intrusive than Google etc, it would not do anything to remove or prevent those applications from doing what they already do.

The best that you could possibly say about Webwise is that it will add yet another way of trawling data on top of the existing ones.

The whole concept is as ridiculous as offering to give me my virginity back by doing exactly that same that I was doing when I lost it but with someone wearing a blindfold.
