Phorm and content

A programme on Radio 4 has just covered the criminal organisation which 
appears to be very close with the Home Office again, Phorm.

Their latest wheeze appears to be to spy on your browsing as before but 
then serve people content from other web sites based on the spying. 
Very similar to spying on browsing and then serving adverts.

The programme is You and Yours and it is the last item, starting at 
something like 45-50 minutes from the start.

<http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006qps9> should have the programme 
when it has been encoded and uploaded.
