The longer this goes on the more a long term solution is needed, not just for DPI but for many other Privacy Issues as well.
Well the plan was always to try and expand the focus onto other online privacy issues such as tracking cookies, adware etc. Initially we will continue to concentrate on Phorm and start to expand to cover other similar companies like NebuAd and Front Porch. Ideally we would like to spend some of our time lobbying and the big advantage of being a registered charity is that we will have the opportunity to fund raise more effectively which in turn will allow us to do more and more.

It is still in the preliminary stages as it takes a lot of work getting everything setup but I will be sure to keep everyone updated.

I am also planning to work closely with the Lib Dems after the summer recess; they will be doing a report on these issues and putting some long needed party focus on the entire debate.
