No one company can shut down an entire IRC network unless they happen to own all the servers connected to that network like MS does for the MSN network
*sigh*
You know, having used IRC for a decade, i.e. since before mIRC was even a glint in Khaled's eye, I really do think I know that. And I actually said that I had heard that Easynet were closing THEIR chat services, not everyone else's, LOL.
I also stated quite clearly that
There seems to be no statement from the company about it anywhere in the news, ditto no press release on their website
So I have indeed checked their website. IRCnet not having a central "ownership", I *also* checked the ircnet.org and other sites related to the network, and other than a mention on the former by Lorry I saw no info. at all, let alone an announcement.
