38k? That's a very old figure. According to BT the figure is more like 128k.

Unfortunately I can't the coffers are empty :/ I have just emailed Nicholas Bohm though to ask if there is any chance of video coverage of the event.

[Deko]

Just make sure 80/20 don't arrange the video or you may never see it Mr Hanff

[flashpaul]

It looks like a worthwhile meeting for Alex/Someone to attend

I will pledge a tenner towards the train fare if Alex wants to attend

Totally different problem even if it turned out to be true. No different to Google toolbar tracking, which of course I can opt out of very simply by not using it.

I will concentrate on removing the real invasive threat of Phorm/Webwise and its slippery team of misinformation spin merchants.

Well as I never use FF, have no need of Google toolbar and have swapped my VM account for Sky (best move I ever made btw ) all these 'tracking' scumballs can go stick it where the sun don't shine. I don't see why I should have to 'opt-out' of anything.

My PC is mine, I built the f***ing thing, I pay for my bandwidth, I don't want these parasites watching me ... unless they are going to pay me good money (even then I prefer my privacy .. just because)
