BadPhorm - When good ISPs go bad!:

Fri, 16 May 2008 15:43:13 +0100

BadPhorm - When good ISPs go bad!: : Simply put, three of the UK’s largest ISPs (Virgin Media, BT and TalkTalk) have decided to sell your private browsing history to an advertising broker. Yes, the entire list of every web page you visit gets sent to Phorm (the broker) in real time, as you click, so they can send you ‘targeted advertising’. Naturally the ISP’s are not too keen on telling their users this, they’d much rather feed us all platitudes about how it’ll help combat phishing and how the targeted adverts will be so much better than the random ones we see today.

““You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty.” “The difference between what we do and what we are capable of doing would suffice to solve most of the world’s problem.” “If I had no sense of humor, I would long ago have committed suicide.””

What are web standards and why should I use them?

Thu, 08 May 2008 15:28:14 +0100

What are web standards and why should I use them?: Many uses of the Web, including some that are only dreamed of today, will not be possible, or will be more difficult, without widespread standards compliance. At the moment, there are systems and software that are very common, seemingly close to universal, but who knows what tomorrow will bring? Tying ourselves to the control of any single company means limiting our future to the fortunes and misfortunes which that one company can or will provide. Maintaining universal standards will allow the Web to survive while encouraging innovation to continue at its current pace.
