It would be interesting if Google were to take action against BT/Phorm and block all BT's IP's, if they were to ever do another trial? It would be fun to see the BT execs and Kent's face, as he always seems happy, to want to chuck mud at Google.(Not saying Google are much better, at least I have a choice in whether to use Google or not, without having to switch ISP's).

I wrote to google ages ago. No reply. (So that is BT Retail legal department, BT DPA request, ICO, Google, and a few others, including half my MEP's who haven't replied.)
But no reason not to write. I never worry too much about not getting replies. the letter still makes them think.

I wasn't worried about getting a reply!

It occurs to me that even a CAT or a parrot can sign up to BT Webwise and effect a change in the primary account holders T&C's and hence, contract with the ISP. One keypress required when the invitation arrives - no password, no login.
M'Lud - my client BT plc holds that the cat and the parrot are legally competent and this contract is valid and enforceable. I rest my paws/beak.
