Lord Carter is the author of a report for the UK Government, Digital Britain. The UK Government, its Departments and other agencies have been remarkably ineffective over the fracas about Phorm's deep packet inspection technology, its covert testing by BT in 2006 and 2007, and its more open testing by BT on 2008.
Well, what's this in a Guardian report (Government's broadband-for-all pledge in jeopardy)?
Carter's internet adviser Kip Meek [my emphasis], leading talks with the mobile phone industry, is understood to want to open up the airwaves so that mobile phone companies can get broadband into rural areas.
Judging from a Google search, Kip Meek has a track record in IT work. He's also a Phorm Board Member!
