To the best of our knowledge neither Virgin Media or Carphone Wharehouse have yet to break the law but BT and Phorm almost certainly did by carrying out a trial on their users without obtaining consent of ANY sort last summer. Its quite clear that under RIPA consent has to be obtained and not only was consent NOT obtained but BT even lied about it at the time and denied anything was going on. Secondly, its questionable as to whether Phorm had even complied with the DPA at the time as I dont think they had registered with the Data Protection Registrar.
