With respect, its not snooping at all. BT broadcast the AGM presentation using induction loop technology. They broadcast the AGM, simultaneously, over the net using webcasting in any case.

Receiving an induction loop broadcast, like receiving local FM radio broadcasts, isn't 'snooping'. (NB; using it to monitor a private conversation, such as at Post Office counters certainly IS).

Unless you want BT to ban people wearing hearing aids from the AGM?

If it were a private meeting, if the AGM wasn't being simultaneously relayed over the internet, I might otherwise agree.

Update; I will contact BT to see if they object to the use of induction loop receivers outside the AGM? Would that help?
