No, I think it started way before then: Working Link 1 Working Link 2 Looks like the site is waiting for John Yorke to log in and update them on it. At a guess, the police know that if they say they are doing nothing, they will get their *rse kicked, and if they say they are doing something, they will get their *rse kicked. Accordingly, a senior officer has been drafted in to see which buttock is better protected.... [ Edited Tue Jul 22 2008, 12:41PM ] I'm a nonconPhormist; I won't be conned by Phorm | ||

 Registered Member #281 Joined: Wed Apr 02 2008, 10:59PMPosts: 91 | The police are not to blame for what the ISPs have done or are contemplating doing. I think it particularly unwise to be critical of the police at this time, especially as they have it in their power to do something about this issue. That is is not to say that one shouldn't be frustrated with delays. Just remember it is the silly season when everyone is off on holiday, so seeking out relevant information and getting decisions made is much more difficult than usual.

If they do not, a complaint can be raised via the Independent Police Complaints Commission. If they do nothing in this case, I think they will be chargeable under dereliction of duty.

Wait until the new trial and then there will hopefully be lots of evidence to pass their way. Proud to be a Phorm free ISP - www.mADSLax.co.uk - Griffin reseller | ||
