Useful Service or Invasion of Privacy?
Consumer magazine Which? reports this month on Webwise, an internet behaviour monitoring service. Webwise follows your online activity to build up a picture of your browsing habits. Phorm, the company behind Webwise, say that the service does not breach privacy as the profile built up is anonymous - they do not have your name or personal details. Advertisers buy the information from Webwise/Phorm to send you targetted adverts & promotions.
Is your ISP considering using this service? BT, Talk Talk & Virgin Media are all evaluating Webwise, and BT have already conducted customer trails.
Would you opt in or opt out of this service?
