That will tell you if your email address is included in the Guntrader leak but nothing else.

The data varies for each entry. Mine has postcode but no address, others have full address.

The CSV file is about 67MB.

I have heard that BASC will be asking the police to bring data protection charges against Hunting Leaks and take down their website.

One good step although it may well appear elsewhere ...

They're not that on the case.... It still shows on their news page.

How annoying!
I'm surprised the police haven't nipped this up yet. What does it take? Another Plymouth born out of the recklessness of anti-hunting knobheads?
Perhaps we ought to contact the press, you know, the same people that stir up the shock horror angle whenever so much as an air pistol appears in the news.

I see the simpletons are employing moronic arguments too.

"You could also ask gun owners why they think that council tax payers should be funding their “sport”, the cost of a shotgun renewal licence is only £49, yet the cost to police forces to process the licence was £196 in 2014."

To which I would reply:
'I don't have any kids and use a private dentist - so why are my taxes being used to educate your kids and repair their grotty teeth? But I agree that £196 is a lot of money and the need for licenses should be scrapped as they do nothing to kerb firearm crime by criminals and are really just a placebo for people like you that have a very simplistic grasp on the way society works.'
