The diagram - the only one available - illustrates the system that uses cookies for opting-in out. BT have since stated that they are working on a non-cookie based method for the full roll-out - no mention of how they'll operate the trial.
It's worth pointing out that BT and Phorm appear to have been muddying the waters ever since this thing came to light so no-one is entirely sure of how the system actually works. They even invented a whole new language using terms such as "mirrored" and "profiled" and "data digest" but refused to explain what they actually mean when we asked on the BT forum.
BT are now refusing point blank to even reply to emails, letters or phone calls regarding Webwise from many people and the few responses that we do see are shallow and often directly offensive.
The bottom line is that BT have become such a bunch of lying **** that anything they say is no longer to be trusted and everything should be taken as false until proven otherwise.
