I wonder if anyone has been following this?
A Premier league footballer has been granted an injunction against Twitter to reveal people who have twittered his name. Apparently there are hundreds of people who have used his name in relation to his affair with Imogen Thomas former Big Brother star.
The footballer and Fred the Shred (Fred Goodwin) are also seeking Gagging Orders against parliament so that their names cannot be mentioned in open session or be reported.
Gosh…..Not sure what I think of this. Should we have Gagging orders? Surely if someone lives in the public eye they should understand their life will be scrutinised and live it accordingly?
In future will people who can afford it be able to live a debauched life whilst seeming squeaky clean to the rest of us?… Hmmmm not sure i approve thinking of it like that.
What do you think? :?
One last thing…does it mean if Twitter reveals the names of all these people and their identities…. Martin will have to do the same here if asked? Interesting huh? :-#
If so I am demanding my freedom of information…. Martin… who is coathanger? :D
