The points can then be raised that these shenanigans can break HTTP applications, due to all the redirect requests and the cookie issues.
Compared side by side the original compared to the Phorm'ed connection would show a lot of extra overhead in the latter. |
As can clearly be seen from the diagram, I'm no artist
, but I did have a stab at a simplified version. I think what's really needed is an animation showing a web page request with and without phorming, however I still suspect a step could be missing in the information provided to Dr. Richard Clayton, so it may need updating.
