I just wanted to bring this post back into clear sight as I suspect it may have got lost amid all the posts last night.
Even with very low security settings, the only cookie the webwise site offers me is a php session cookie. Surfing around the webwise site, it sniffs my ISP and tells me that my ISP has not yet enabled webwise.
Also, if I use the Google cache of the opt-in/out pages, trying to pick up either version of the cookie results in a 403 response from the server. This is the same as I have seen for a few months now.
If there is anyone here who still uses VM, BT or TT (or any of their subsidiaries) can they post whether or not they are also seeing cookies in the a.webwise.net domain?
These cookies are a bit odd because BT have always said that blocking cookies in the
www.webwise.net domain will prevent the profiling.
Time for a bit of clarity from Webwise: which domain is used for the UID cookie?
Or, will it be like the 2006/7 trials where every ISP had a unique identifier?
When you think about it, if everyone has the same domain for the cookie, how will the OIX script know which ISP to pay after displaying the ads?
