Plusnet will give your personal details to ACS Law with not informing you!!
Quote from: Emdee Hmmm... seems Plusnet are a little more entangled in this than they care to admit.
The ASC:Law website is currently (at time of writing) unavailable, but a little digging turns up the following info, which suggests that Plusnet are/were supplying internet services to ASC:Law...
A little digging shows that you don't know what you are talking about.
You have looked up a domain name that has never been registered and the Plusnet DNS servers are telling you they can't find it.
Their domain is acs-law.co.uk not acs-law.org.uk
Edit: Actually if you do a whois on acs-law.co.uk to find out their authoratative name servers and then try accessing them you'll find they are down.
ACS seem to be trying to disappear from the internet - I wonder why?
... and somebody could be guilty of sharing copyright material and only using 2GB a month. Trying to couple heavy usage with this issue is a complete red herring!
Lets hope they never role out FTTP or 60 could be gone in minutes 
What is the point of faster and faster internet and smaller and smaller allowances?
Stop trying to go faster untill you have every place in the country connected to the internet with a minimum 2Meg.
Sorry O.T.

Quote from: Fletch We would like to re-iterate that we have contacted all the affected customers via email. However, if you haven’t received an email from us and you have previously received a letter from ACS Law in relation to Plusnet, then please raise a ticket via our Help Assistant .
I think what PN have done so far to alert it's customers far exceeds any other ISP at the moment. Unless i am mistaken BSkyB have not taken these steps. I'm not saying they are forgiven for their lack of help 'prior' to the data leak, but since then they seem to have been the most 'in touch' with their customer base since the leak. Thank you for that.

As a result of the incident at ACS Law, Plusnet will be providing all affected customers with an Identity Protection Service,
I never knock anything that is free.
Not that i will be offered this, but i think this is another thumbs up.
Quote As we stated yesterday we are no longer co-operating with ACS Law over the provision of information
Will this be reviewed if/when ACS Law prove they have suitable data protection in place?
It's a shame you're not the 'listening ISP' .... Whatever happened to "the customer is always right"?
Quote Due to serious concerns about the integrity of the process that is being used by rights holders, we will resist efforts to share more customer details
I'd like to say "we told you so" but i think that is plainly obvious now!I am predicting that on Monday the Judge will be unlikely to pass the NPO due to these recent events, but we shall see.
Quote from: Fletch Firstly, we would like to apologise again to customers affected by the leak of data from ACS Law. We can confirm that we did send unencrypted data to ACS Law. However, this was not the cause of the leak. At a later date, due to a cyber-attack on the systems of the law firm, data that it held was leaked. We are extremely angry with ACS Law for allowing this to happen.
This is incorrect.
After a DDOS, ACS Law stupidly loaded all their emails onto their web server.
In other words, they put data that should have been encrypted on a public facing web server.
Obviously, these highly confidential emails should never have been advertised by ACS Law.
As you might expect, these are now widely spread accross the internet.
But the fault lies entirely with ACS:Law, aided and abetted by Plusnet.
Is October 4th on your radar?
