Interestingly it works on HTTPS but with HTTP you get a block page referencing the court order (confirmed by a friend on Plusnet)

Same here, I hadn't tried HTTP. I wonder if this is Plusnet conforming to the letter of the law in quiet defiance? Of course, it could just be an error on their part...
