Actually, I think this was done a couple of years ago. In February 2004, I received this email from Brightshare's affiliate manager:caruso said:Something is unexplained here: it isn't just Ecogra who've pulled all reference to PriceWaterhouseCooper - it's EVERY online gambling site out there. They all now say "independent auditors" in place of "PWC"....
Hi Bryan,
I would like to draw your attention to an urgent matter. Please be advised that PriceWaterhouseCoopers has instructed all Microgaming casinos as follows:
1. It is not permissible to use the PwC logo and/or brand name in any e-mails whatsoever. This includes third party advertising.
2. It is not permissible to use PwC's name for any feature on any third party site.
Should you have any mention of PwC on your sites, please remove them asap. If you would like to refer to the casinos you are marketing as being audited, please refer to PwC as 'one of the largest professional business service providers in the world'.
Please contact me if you have any questions.
Best Regards,
Lloyd Apter

So we are probably looking at something that is associated with permissible uses of trademarks etc., instead of PWC going "underground".
