The person in question has been named in parliament and is now named in a BBC web page report so hopefully it can be discussed here now?
It seems obvious that the law is out of date in terms of the WWW and how fast news/gossip/lies can travel.
Personally I don’t care who anybody is alleged to have jumped into bed with, but the attempt to gag the press is surely a concern? I don’t consider it news in terms of the alleged affair, but the legal issues are of interest.
what does anybody think ?

G.A. Whatever way you look at what I, others and yourself have put down, you must agree at the end of the day, it’s all about MONEY, in whatever way, shape, or form it takes to get it.Dirty tricks just play a small part in it.

There’s a lot more to so-called “superinjunctions” than errant spouses trying to cover their tracks.
For example, why not do a little research into how the multinational company Trafigura made use of them?

When are these male or female celebraties going to realise that a “Night in an Hotel” with a member of the opposite sex will almost certainly be sold to one of the tabloids for shed loads of money, and usualy it’s the female who blows the gaff.
Some folks will never learn.

I don’t either and I actually believe that the tabloids probably care far more than they think the public does. It seems to me that if someone takes the decision to “play away” he/she should take the consequences, however painful they may be for the family and friends. Taking refuge in the law in exchange for large amounts of money does not absolve the perpetrator of his/her responsibilities.
