I wouldn't get too excited though. The only relevant bit is as follows:

Webwise

Several questions were raised concerning BT’s proposed use of the technology of Phorm Inc., a US based software company, particularly over the nature of early technical trials conducted. Several members of the Board responded to these questions. They explained that BT and other companies have announced an agreement with Phorm to offer a free internet service, called Webwise. This provides protection against fraudulent websites and offers more relevant advertising based on sites that customers visit and the topics that they search for. In a competitive market this is a good commercial opportunity for BT. Two technical trials have already taken place, before which BT took legal advice. Another trial is due to begin shortly and customers will be free to choose if they wish to participate in it.

I leave it as an excercise for the reader to spot all of the errors and omissions in that bit of spin.
