Just to let the visitors of any domain I own and operate know that I have submitted a request to BT that they hold no permission to intercept traffic to or from my sites and should remove my sites from their profiling system.

If you own any websites, I fully recommend you do the same by following this link – you’ll be joining many people including Amazon.com in standing up for our rights.

The message sent to them is included below.

Hi,

I wish to have the following domains and any subdomains within to be excluded from your illegal wiretapping service known as “webwise”.

alphaxion.com
verticalslice.tv
pissheadnerds.com

Phorm DO NOT have any permission to intercept or disseminate the information contained on these sites, it is a gross abuse of privacy and of data neither you nor phorm own.

Regards,
Chris Johnson

Please join this stand as well as inform as many people as you can about the sleeze, collusion and abuse perpetrated by BT, Phorm and the UK Government when it comes to the logging of everything you do on the internet.

And for those who think “well, I’m not bothered about them seeing that I visit pets.com every month” you need to wake up, your privacy is one of the most important things in your possession. Just because you see no value in it, doesn’t mean there isn’t any.

It is a cornerstone, a pillar (and any other metaphor) of democracy. With it, a government cannot control its population. Without it, we are naked and open to abuse – just look at the use of employee blacklists for examples of how your privacy can be abused and the absence of it used to deny you access to essential things even when you have done nothing other than voice an opinion.

Just remember that Phorm used to be known as 121media, a known spyware/malware company, and that their technology matches up perfectly to the aims of the telecommunications bill that proposes all internet traffic be monitored.

Now do you understand why the UK Government has been turning a blind eye to the crimes committed by BT and Phorm? Do you realise why, when asked by the people they are supposed to work for (that’d be us), the UK government simply use excuses that do not stand up in a court of law (no bad intent, it’s too complicated to explain to you).

Please, spread the truth about Phorm and educate as many people as possible about why it’s wrong. And hit them in the pocket too by opting your websites out of their abusive system.

Links of interest.
