No disrespect but I think you are possibly mixing up privacy (the right to peace and quiet) with privacy (I don't want all my date wire tapped). I don't think Phorm is mild by comparison as Phorm/WebWise affects everybody in the world who has a website with HTTP and certainly those on BT. These large screens only affect 0.00001% of the worlds population at a guess.
But saying that I do agree that it is a disgraceful invasion of our privacy and you are right to complain
albeit slightly off-topic.
