As it's a paralysingly slow news week (multiple

something to print. The quotes were directly nicked too, my phone
hasn't rung since with anyone else actually asking for a comment.
So I'd say this is this season's August/September story, just a few
months early.
Perhaps. However it's pretty clear that the media wants to sink
super-injunctions and "they don't work due to the internet" is the
latest attack line. Going by the size of the traffic spikes on certain
articles I'd say they were only moderately successful.
