Phorm PR at work, no doubt.

Remember, they can't control or stop people on the net from blogging or posting negative opinions about Phorm. That is their weakness. Their strength is that they are adept at influencing 'official' opinion. The press is eager for official opinion. They have the money and connections to influence government, press, and other companies.

Speaking of which, were people aware that Phorm had/has hired (not sure if they are still with Phorm) the 'Burson-Marsteller' PR agency?

"Hi — Phorm Comms Team here. Just wanted to bring some clarity to your spirited piece. We actually have three agencies on board: Freud, Citigate Dewe Rogerson and Burson-Marsteller (why where they ignored?! Could the PR Week article that inspired your blog http://www.prweek.com/uk/news/articl...fightback/have got its facts wonky?) also we work with John Stonborough, as you say. Marvellous chap. "
