Plusnet will give your personal details to ACS Law with not informing you!!
Now why would they do that.... I thought they had flawless Anti-Piracy business going. Surely a small amout of backlash from the public was not the cause so why give up half way through?
Perhaps because they had nothing to go on to start with!!

[quote="ACS:Law and MediaCAT Completely Shut Down Both Their Businesses"]
Hot on the heels of the recent announcement in court that ACS:Law will stop chasing alleged file-sharers, comes an even more dramatic development. According to a document seen by TorrentFreak, both ACS:Law and their copyright troll client MediaCAT have just completely shut down their businesses. The news comes just days before a senior judge is due to hand down a ruling on the pair’s activities.
In a statement handed to the Patents County Court earlier this month, ACS:Law owner Andrew Crossley delivered some good news for once. The anti-piracy business had all got too much for Crossley – he would now stop chasing alleged file-sharers.

With regards to the ACS/Mediacat being "Closed Down"
With media c.a.t being limited - you can object to this formally by writing to Companies house
- Generally, they do not mess about and will refuse it.

Quote 8. How and why can they object?
Objections must be in writing and sent to the Registrar of Companies with any supporting evidence, such as copies of invoices that may prove the company is trading.
Reasons for objecting include:
• the company has broken any of the conditions of its application (for example, it has traded, changed its name or become subject to insolvency proceedings) during the three-month period before the application, or afterwards;
• the directors have not informed interested parties;
• any of the declarations on the form are false;
• some form of action is being taken, or is pending, to recover any money owed (such as a winding-up petition or action in a small claims court);
• other legal action is being taken against the company;
• the directors have wrongfully traded or committed a tax fraud or some other offence.

Maybe Plusnet/BT could do that for its customers but going by past events they will do nothing or be so slow in doing it it results in the same thing.
