Phorm is Illegal
It has come to my attention that my ISP Virgin media will be participating in the phorm spying (IMHO) service.
Not only has BT admitted to illegally trialling phorm, but government advisers has announced "Phorm is illegal", which in my expert opinion (as a Web Developer) I whole heartedly agree with.
Badphorm is a good little site with info about the issue.
There is some good commentary on slashdot: Some notes from the Phorm sales pitch and also a huge thread on the cable forum (best to skip to last page as over 90 pages long): Virgin Media Phorm Webwise Adverts
I also would like you to sign up for the petition to Stop ISP's from breaching customers privacy via advertising technologies
