Re: TalkTalk tracking you, phorm?
The US instinctively understand that isps are in a position of responsibility which is easily capable of being abused. It is one thing to ignore the privacy of individuals but by doing that en masse an isp can profile other online businesses merely by data analysis of ingoing and outgoing traffic of individuals.
What happens when a large multinational conglomerate (possibly foreign owned) acquires an isp and starts analysing traffic to UK competitors businessess?
Online businessess have to cry foul to the UK government till a rigorous set of laws are made regarding isp activities and these laws are properly policed and properly enforced.
