My view of the problem is that the main architect of the human rights law, Winston Churchill, when designing this law didn't have in mind overpaid footballers, actors etc who are unable to keep on their Calvin Klein's. Furthermore, judges who are unable to understand the power of modern technology and who think California, the home of Twitter, is still part of the colonies. But more of a concern is that some Judges are making up the law up as they go along, injunctions just one of several instances, and this week threatening free speech in Parliament. Apparently it's only France and England who apply this privacy law to such a degree, America and other european counties apply the publish and be dammed principle, where a jury decides as to whether a complainant has been wronged by the press and compensation is awarded accordingly.
