Nice scoop Frank! Puts things into perspective when the US, the land where a company who has data on a customer has every right to do what they like with it (in comparison to the DPA over here) takes a protective stance against such a technology. Hopefully some ripples shall amount to something at some stage.

I had a few words with the author of this article and he has edited it accordingly:

http://www.netimperative.com/news/20...d-system-phorm

It is markedly different to the original version and no longer reads like a Phorm press release.

Anyone else getting a database error on DigitalSpy?

No not at my end.

perhaps all these news outlets that are publishing the Phorm BT trial spin should be advised that Phorms 'evil twin' over the pond has hit on hard times.

Not sure if anyone has picked up on this yet, but we might well have our thunder well and truly stolen on the 16th by the Unison strike.

Just go to the picket lines with flyers and a tub of paste - and stick anti-phorm flyers over their placards

EDIT: On a serious note, outside in the picket lines - 1'000 angry workers supping tea.... INSTANT AUDIENCE....

Excellent news, I wonder if Google had anything to do with that.

Charter stopping NebuAd, not the protests

It may be wise to check out what Services will be affected & how it may possibly affect this Protest.

Lets not forget it is their shares and funds are being put at risk by the possible Cavalier attitude of their Directors and Executives by associating BT with illegal data spying and poorly chosen partners in crime.

Also I noticed that BT Broadband payed for a full front/back cover ad of todays Metro. Virgin payed for 1 full page, one third page and one corner ad. I reckon they are getting desperate.

Re: Virgin Media Phorm Webwise Adverts [Updated: See Post No. 1, 77, 102 & 797]
I am currently in discussions with an old friend of mine who is a producer for BBC's Newsnight to see if they would be willing to cover the Phorm issue. I can't promise anything but I have known him several years as a result of him interviewing me on Newsnight back in 2005 regarding another matter. He is a decent chap so he may run with it.
