Dear Sir / Madam,

We are writing this open letter to you to ask you if you will act to protect your users’ privacy.

We are asking you to exercise your ability to opt out of the Phorm system, that is planned to be rolled out in the near future under the “Webwise” brand by BT, Virgin and TalkTalk, the three largest UK ISPs.

You may already be aware of the very significant concerns being expressed by many of your UK Internet customers about the interception and processing of their data whenever it is viewed by customers whose ISPs deploy the Phorm/Webwise system.
