Phorm Back in the News

Looks like Phorm is back in the news again -

The City of London Police is looking into allegations one of its officers was provided hospitality by Phorm in 2010, when there was still much controversy surrounding BT’s trialling of the behavioural advertising software.

A document found by privacy campaigner Alex Hanff, who in 2010 pressed for a prosecution over BT’s use of Phorm, appears to show a detective sergeant was taken to lunch on 5 July 2010 by the firm. It was only in April 2011 that the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) decided the case was not worth a court hearing, saying it was not “in the public interest”. ...

Rest of article ...


:hrmph:
 
"Ah, do come in, Mr. Mints! We were told to expect you, so your table is ready - it's the one with the fat brown envelope lightly sellotaped to the back of the menu.
I think you'll find "UK Green Turtl" of particular interest.
No, that's not a misprint, sir - it's a slightly different creature, this one. ;)"

Interesting that the alleged dining habits of a City of London police officer are to be looked at by...
...the City of London Police.

"Forger to investigate claim that nine-bob note may be bent".
:rolleyes:

Oh no not Phorm news again.. :) .

Hmm not sure whether to cover this as well, might just wait to see what the outcome is first.
 
Phorm will never go away as the government and the police both failed to act in the publics interest instead they lined their own pockets..
 
and they will continue to, after all what was the point of selling off the NHS and this surveillance state stuff they are trying to introduce again.
