about time too, I made it clear to them when I left that the potential phorm deployment was a major factor in my refusal to sign a 12 month contract with them.

It's people like yourself that truly won this victory for privacy. I salute you sir.

I bet the guys at phorm are rather annoyed now

This is only the beginning, Phorm needs to be completely destroyed and other companies prevented from copying them.

definitely that!

I thought they just decided to postpone the roll out rather than abandon the plan completely.

All of the above!

they probably realised that using phorm to monitor what we do is pointless.

At the end of it all - *I* can still see everyone having their stuff hosted on the net eventually. And it wont use monitoring - prob something like a subscription service.

Im going to shut up now and not change the subject - but at the end of it - less and less of our information is being kept private as more and more dependancy is based upon the internet. I believe thats just how progress is going to go. Thats what the borg next to me says.

There's already a BT Phorm thread in the Networking forum.

So what? This affects wider issues then merely networking.

all i can say is THANK GOD.

what an appalling affront to personal privacy it would have been

But as an ISP BT still suck. Phorm was probably the final straw in my decision to get my parents away from them nearly a year ago. Their traffic shaping is still unacceptable and compared to other ISP's they are bad value.
