London Trust Media does not appear to be registered in the UK.

But Freenode Ltd is: https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/10308021/officers

It looks like Lee is the only director and is majority shareholder. PIA and LTM are not mentioned.

London Trust Media was renamed to (or part of its assets were taken over by?) Imperial Family Companies[1]. I assume this refers to him pretending to be the crown prince of Korea…

And London Trust Media sold PIA in 2019 to Kape Technologies[2], a company that has been linked with spreading malware[3] (which is one of the reasons why people don’t trust Andrew Lee).

It's registered in Delaware, US, iirc.
