So why have Privacy International got nothing at all to say about Phorm? Literally not one single word. Click here to search their web site.
You can search news.google.com for Google and Privacy International. 61 results. But do the same for Phorm and Privacy International and you get zilch.
So, PI simply stinks to me.

There are however, some links on Webwise and OIX

There is also the statement:
"Opting Out
The whole opt-in and opt-out debate is only the beggining of the story. Most of the advertising schemes out there require that you opt-out if you do not wish to be behaviourally profiled and tracked. We fundamentally oppose these techniques and demand opt-in regimes. In the meantime, however, we are listing the opt-out opportunities that you have. One major problem here is that if you delete your cookies, you will have to opt-out again from all of these services."
