Taken from a Bebo page.
Phorm, formerly 121 Media, the creators of spyware/adware, have now signed arrangements with Virgin Media, BT and Talk Talk to monitor the web browsing habits of their customers and claim this intrusion will provide 'better security' and 'better-targeted' advertisements based on the sites the customers visit.
Phorm claims that the software they will be using will not affect the privacy of the customers of these ISPs; however, these customers will be automatically opted-in to the scheme.
This Group explains how it is claimed to work, and provides the means to counter the software, and resources to help combat this threat to customers privacy.
Spread the word - this is a massive invasion of your privacy.
