Scrap Captcha and Computerise Guess Who!

Everyone knows computers are rubbish at facial recognition. Whatever happened to the study where they used facial recognition instead of words? Maybe its a good time to look at that again!

I.E. Look at the pictures below. Click on the guy with glasses and a tash.

DPA Query

I have just read this document here http://www.ico.gov.uk/upload/documents/library/data_protection/practical_application/subject_access_-_guide_for_data_subjects.pdf

Here is my question, if Phorm are holding data relating to myself, I should under the DPA, be able to request access to this data? However if the system is fully anonymous Phorm cannot produce the data.

Would this not breach the DPA?
