it seems someone has worked that one out, shame BT and Phorm have not
also the service requires a opt-in every 45 days
phorm and BT could take a look at this and gets some ideas how things should be done "transparently" with a good "opt-in" and "no cookies"

I would argue that the opt-in period of 45 days not that good, although the principle of a none continuous opt-in is not a bad principle.
I do think though that Fire Eagle is another erosion of our privacy. Imagine going down the high street and you are suddenly accosted by the insurance salesman who has tracked you down! Or worse still... your secret stalker.
Anyhow slightly off topic I guess..
