I have submitted a question with similar points also. Hopefully if enough people submit the question something will be done.

I've asked "why are government departments ignoring British Telecom and Phorms criminal breach of the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 (RIPA) during secret trials in 2006 and 2007."

She's giving him a real grilling isn't she.

At least we will get the follow-up e-mail propaganda to respond to.

It's all a PR stunt, but it's worth a try

I asked what the governments views were on our internet being intercepted to force adverts onto us that I had already blocked on the internet and the possibility of this action being illegal?

Finished and I see we got no response. Big surprise there then

We can always kick their butts at the local elections to make them take note..

Well, my resubmission of Alexander's original petition has been rejected as follows:

Your petition was classed as being in the following categories:

* Outside the remit or powers of the Prime Minister and

It does make me wonder what we pay them for?

"Why is your government ignoring the fact that the company known as Phorm is being allowed to install surveillance equipment in UK Internet Service Provider networks and monitor all their customers web activity, when this is clearly a gross invasion of privacy and a criminal offence under the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 ("RIPA")?"

Done.

before it finished i did as you about RIPA, but also asked why BT were working with unauthorised copyrighted users datastreams, and passing to their partners in crime, Phorm, before they had a legal data controller licence

I decided that spending hours resubmitting petitions on the downing street website was a waste of time. May as well start the new petition on another site as was suggested in a comment on The Register so I decided what the hell and did it

Hmm... just noticed a new call on my landline... 08454 540000.

Looks to be a Virgin Media number. Wonder what they're calling about? If I've written to them (as I have) then surely a written response is called for. It's rather rude to not reply using the same method that the customer used to contact you.
