It’s all BS really, we received one of those letters from davenport lyons, didn’t reply, didn’t respond, didn’t do anything and they appear to have left us alone. Had a call from a lawyer saying he could sort it out for a “fee”. Told ‘em all to get stuffed they’re as bad as each other. Anyway couldnt find anything on any computers and my network is secure so how they reckon anything got d/l I dont know, didnt even know what bitlord was until I read about it here. As far as I’m concerned ignore all letters sent out from anyone !

When ACS LAW stop sending you letters cos you have dug a trench and put barbed wire out in front of it and manned the machine gun and refused to pay. What happens then? Can they keep the allegation on file and use it again at a later date or because they have taken no further action it becomes null & void?

@30

You’re getting “Logistep” mixed up with “Logitech,” which is the company that makes keyboards and other peripherals. As far as I know they are two completely different entities.

What ACS really stands for: Ambulance Chasing Solicitors.

I posted this very comment to TorrentFreak when the news broke that they had taken over for Davenporn Lyons in the extortion game.

Lawyers like these are what give the rest of the legal profession a bad name. Too bad that those like Ray Beckermann (aka New York Country Lawyer) who are helping to defend filesharers from the MAFIAA are so few in number.

Is this the same Logistep co. that sells hardware like keyboard/mouse?
If so folks should not buy there product if the profits go to this sort of thing.

Old news regarding ISPA and their views on the standard of evidence currently being presented, similar was reported on BBC News on 12 May. However it is good to see the ISPA restating their postion, and additionally Which? reporting on current developments as well.

That said why are the ISPs (who are members of the ISPA) not challenging the Norwich Pharmacal Orders if they are aware of the standard of evidence currently being presented?

From 12 May 09.
“However, the Internet Services Providers’ Association (Ispa) – a trade body that represents ISP’s – said that users could challenge disconnections through the courts and, at present, the technology available for monitoring and detecting illegal sharers was not of a standard “where they would be admissible as evidence in court”.
