Dear Sir or Madam,
Has the BBC followed the likes of Wikimedia and Amazon in opting
out of allowing BT Webwise/Phorm to profile users of it's websites?
If not, does it plan to in the future?
Please disclose information on all meetings and correspondence
regarding this subject, including dates, attendees and agendas.
Yours faithfully,
M Veale
