Nice piece. The longevity of the badness there is one reason why eight out of ten places that measure Internet reputation of ISPs listed ThePlanet on their top 10 worst.
What's interesting is if you look at the data from the FIRE guys I spoke with for that story, you can use their tool to select ThePlanet and see for yourself how long some of these abuse issues have persisted there; a graphic that places them at the #1 worst spot for more or less as long as they've been keeping tabs pretty much says it all.
