I'd not touch any ISP that offers this. My ISP won't be doing this thankfully.

Phorm (iirc) requires the ISP to install hardware within the ISP's network. A lot of companies aren't going to be too keen on this, as it's extra hassle, more things to worry about, and what happens if it's a bottleneck on a busy network?

Other ISP's have been routing all failed DNS to advert servers in a similar ploy.

Has anyone else heard about this? Seems ISPs want to sell our browsing
activity to agencies so that we can be targeted by advertisers.
