Virgin Media today sought to publicly clarify its relationship with Phorm,
amid concerns that spin from the controversial ISP adware company has
worried many of its customers.

Virgin Media has extensively rewritten information on its website about
the "Webwise" advertising targeting system to make it clear that it has
not agreed to deploy or adopt the system. The newly spelled-out position
runs contrary to repeated Phorm press releases and statements made by its
executives.
