This does all raise an interesting question of what jurisdictions actually
cover. In the "superinjunction" case for example, which of these is legally
able to be sued:
- A UK citizen who posts the names online from their home in the UK and
then remains in the UK after - obviously "yes".
- A US citizen who reads the names on Twitter and re-posts them online
from their hotel while on vacation in the UK, then remains in the UK for
some time
- A UK citizen who reads the names on Twitter and re-posts them online
from their hotel while on vacation in the US
1/ actionable while still on vacation in the US?
2/ actionable upon return to the UK?
- A US citizen who reads the names on Twitter and re-posts them online
from their home in the US
1/ actionable while in the US (having not traveled)?
2/ actionable when they travel to the UK on vacation a while later?
Just curious which of these is litigable or in contempt, and which is not.
