I suppse that if you host web servers that you 100% don't want to be analised by the Phorm system as there will be no way of telling whether the person is opt-in / out and at present there is no definative on if opting out actually stops the data from being digested anyway, the only way of making sure this doesn't happen is to block access / redirect at a domain level for any ISP that has implemented Phorm. May I salute you Skyuser on this one. Its definately the first I have read of someone doing this. If this stance / action catches on it really would be interesting to say the least. | ||

I actually missed this article (perhaps someone knows wether this article was posted/linkled on here) but again Im very suspicious about the whole russian link. Reading from another forum i saw a post stating The Mail on Sunday reporting on Phorm in February stated that:- "The development team for the new software was recruited from Moscow's elite Lebedev Institute of Precision Mechanics and Computer Engineering, a vital part of of the Cold War spying effort and still a centre for developing Russia's 'national security' computer systems." can someone remember reading this article ? id be interested to read the whole thing. It does worry me given the current strate of the world and Russias attitude towards the rest of the world that there are alterior motives behind phorm.
