I second that

Anyone else 'lurking', please drop by to say hello, and show that you are with us - the more voices heard; the greater the impact.

Confirmed, Meglena Kuneva is in London now...

Can't find any details what so ever anywhere on the face of the planet of the meeting who's attending or what they are meeting about (apart from the original MediaPost source).

The report referenced in that article is a damned good read http://www.freepress.net/files/NebuAd_Report.pdf

Also mentioned in it is that NebuAd has a UK office - anyone know what they are up to?

Oh oh http://www.nebuad.co.uk/

Pete - maybe you need to add 'and NebuAd are coming to the UK'

uhh ohhh..

The NebuAd Privacy Council
From the outset, NebuAd has worked with experts to ensure that we build a new type of advertising service that adheres to the core principles of transparency, user notification and choice. In the US, NebuAd technology has been - and continues to be - regularly reviewed by a panel of eminent, independent privacy experts. In the UK NebuAd has engaged a leading practitioner of advertising, data protection and information technology law to ensure that NebuAd's technology and activities fall within UK and European law.

In September 2007, NebuAd engaged Ponemon Institute to conduct an independent review of the privacy and data security-related aspects of NebuAd's technology. The final report commented; "Through its consistent consideration of privacy issues and design of privacy protections into their product from the earliest design stage, NebuAd ranks among the most privacy conscious vendors we have worked with in the online advertising industry

Ponemon is a merkin outfit, yup that makes them fit for purpose for the UK doesn't it.

hmm one for another day methinks.

"NebuAd is not currently operating in the UK. As soon as we are, this page will give web users the opportunity to opt-out of receiving our services."

seems they may have plans if phorm suceed

With how Phorm have been hit perhaps trying to keep their heads down. What was a suprise was the game they used to get the cookies WOW is one game you have to pay to play it so the customer is paying to use the servers and being click spied on for paying looks similar to ISP greed by a few top people signing up without thinking.
Will post a link to that on a gaming forum that should get the younger end asking questions or knowing how half behave raging at the company.

Maybe that's why the share price is staying resolutely low - a whiff of competition in the marketplace.
