As it stands, Safari is compatible with Phorm's cookie forging via redirects, but wasn't supported because phorm's adverts use third party cookies, which it blocks.
If only someone could convince Safari's developers to treat cookies set after a redirect to another domain as third party cookies as is done by Opera, and convince Opera's developers to block third party cookies by default as is done by Safari, then both browsers would be incompatible with Phorm's system. Although I for one still would not be happy with my browsing going through Phorm's DPI kit, whether they claim to process it or not.
