    Why? Does Admin want to buy a speedboat?

    The whole thing is very silly, but I suppose we should be careful.

      Sorry, this won't take a moment....

      There, that should clear things up a bit. Now where were we?

        What for the users email and IP address?

        Note to self must make up more random email addresses that have absolutely nothing to do with my name, link them to a PAYG mobile from a friend of a friend of a friend of a friend of a friend, top-up the mobile in cash and turn my router of regularly so the IP resets, or post from abroad.

          Or is it just yet another "over-paid, thick, ugly, footballer shags model" story?

          More worrying is the likes of the hyper-injunctions that prevent even Parliament knowing of their existence, and that the serious super-injunction stories (dumping of toxic waste, cruise ships with toxic water tanks) get ignored in all the fuss.

          If it is the end of the world this evening, we've brought it on ourselves.

          Rant, rant, rant. OK, I'm outta here. I'm even boring me. Even boring myself, I am, yes.
          You didn't bore me.

          That's my first rant about superinjunctions i.e. you can poison some developing country and injure/kill some of their poor people, and then ban the British Press from telling everyone about it.

          My second rant is the fact that it's rich men such as Andrew Marr stopping poorer women telling the press that the guy is a jerk.

          The kids of the guy are going to get bullied for the fact that their dad hides it rather than the fact that he's cheated. Remember kids have screwed morals. Plus judges etc. forget that kids are better at using online resources and social media than they are.

          I would laugh if the tweeter was someone's under 16 year old kid.

          Is the footballer going to sue the parents?

            I'm sure I posted a comment on this thread last night. Are we being censored?

                  The whole world knows who CTB is.

                  The question now is who is TSE...?

                  And who is the London-based TV star/writer/journalist facing contempt of court?

                    Don't know but there is a good article from Charlie Brooker in the Guardian.

                    Charlie Brooker: Winning a superinjunction no longer guarantees super-anonymity. In fact, it delivers the opposite | Comment is free | The Guardian

                    My theory is that CTB wishes to finish his career in America and needed to get a bit more famous there first.

                    While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

                      I just saw that as the headline of one of the papers in the shops (I didn't notice which one, but it wasn't the Daily Wail).

                      They said the un-named "senior journalist" had been sent to prison for Twittering the name of someone un-named.

                      This is just getting silly.
