Re: ISP Based Contextual Advertising

said by mikenolan7 See Profile :

There isn't anything we can do about our ISP's collecting data on us, but it's very easy to prevent ads from making it to our desktops.
Snooping into my browsing habits is no one's business. Preventing ads from making it to our desktops is so far irrelevant. Boycotting those ISPs is the only thing the user can do.

Many of the regulars in this forum are also interested and active in malware removal and will be familiar with the Apropos rootkit and other products from 121 Media.

Is Phorm just same horse, different color and should they be permitted to legally "intercept" your net activity to provide contextual based advertising.
In this case no matter what kind of horse is Phorm, ISPs are to blame first and only.
No third party should be permitted to legally "intercept" your net activity.
