I assume the remote opt-in "oversight" must have been fixed (athough I wouldn't be surprised if there are other ways to do it).

18. Does remaining opted out depend on the continued presence of an opt-out cookie on the user computer? What happens if I delete the cookie?
There are two ways you can opt out of BT Webwise:
1. visit www.bt.com/webwise and click Switch Off. Note that this will be activated only after the service is launched. This standard opt-out method does depend on a cookie remaining on your machine indicating that you have opted out. If you delete your cookies regularly, you will have to opt-out again each time you start a browsing session.
2. if you delete cookies regularly and want to remain opted out, you can set all your browsers to block cookies from the domain www.webwise.net. When you block this domain, the service will opt you out permanently. You can use this option now and will then be opted out of BT Webwise.
19. Isn't that a pain in the neck?
We provide the facility to block cookies permanently from BT Webwise so if you want to opt out permanently you can do so through a one-time only activity, by setting your browser to block cookies from the domain www.webwise.net. When you block this domain, the service will not put a cookie on your machine and you will not be asked to opt in or out again.
23. What are the changes in the terms and conditions?
A new paragraph (paragraph 18) will be added, explaining that Webwise is available as part of BT's Total Broadband service. That paragraph will also capture customer consent for us to take the necessary technical steps to switch the service on or off, as appropriate (and will make it clear to subscribers that they are responsible for making sure that other users of the service in the household are aware of Webwise and know how to switch it on and off).
