Micheal Rosen saying the protocols of zion photoshop was done by the gnasherjew account. Which I gather they have now issued legal threats over.

Apropos of the dancing round names in this thread, what would happen if someone resident in x non-UK country set up a website with the details of all the ABC v XYZ superinjunctions/other libel risks? I'm assuming there's a reason it's not been done before that is greater than overcaution/fear of Judge Eady appearing on his Lawmaster.

I assumed it was because nobody actually cares outside the UK. Like conceivably yes you could probably put that information up but the point of the law is to ensure there is no major propagation of the information in the UK because the UK's media ecosystem won't touch it. As always while all information is technically available people just go with the things they are most readily exposed to 90% of the time.

It's not as if it would be the first time the name of someone who had some sort of reporting injunction in the UK was named abroad. When it involved more well known showbiz figures you had the UK tabloids grousing about it but holding the line while the names were pretty widely bandied about by the foreign press. You also the same kind of stuff happening with George Pell and the Australian vs foreign press.

I'm assuming there's a reason it's not been done before that is greater than overcaution/fear of Judge Eady appearing on his Lawmaster. Repeating libel - *probably* okay in the US (although I think it might be state-dependent) as they generally will not enforce English judgements because of past abuses, definitely variable around the rest of the world. All of this is also dependent on you never wanting to visit these septic isles. Breaking superinjunctions - very much less okay. Despite what people say they're much less common than you think (IIRC it's only been a few dozen or so, ever, and there haven't been any for a while) and they (theoretically) can be enforced worldwide, although obviously this will vary massively by country. However inevitably superinjunctions come with a massive public-interest get-out clause and I don't think they've ever actually been properly enforced. Privacy orders, which are an order of magnitude less serious legally but also as a result are much more enforceable (because they tend not to be granted where the original respondent has a robust public interest defence) are even more likely to be enforceable because most countries will have some sort of privacy law in place. A lot of the time - e.g. the PJS case - that people talk about a superinjunction they're actually talking about a privacy order, which is similar in concept but legally quite different. None of this really matters though unless you have deep pockets or are close friends with a lawyer with a lot of spare time and a passion for freedom of the press, because even a completely unenforceable order could tie you up in court for months. Note that I am about as much not a lawyer as it's possible to get and this is pieced together mostly from Private Eye and could be 100% wrong.

Borrovan posted:I haven't looked at it since undergrad but jurisdiction shopping is a whole big thing in defamation, and iirc* the US courts are a bit more trigger-happy on it than ours our. We've got all sorts of controls to make sure that we're the most appropriate jurisdiction to sue in (which I think mostly depends on where most of the harm was done - so, for example, if I said that Guy Fieri kills & eats babies, which he does, then he wouldn't be able to sue me in the British courts because nobody in the UK has heard of him - but there's other poo poo too). I think the only major control on jurisdiction shopping that the US has is the double actionability rule, so if you went over to the US & defamed someone in the UK they could just instruct an American lawyer & sue you over there. Not recommended.** I thought the situation was almost exactly opposite this? There's definitely multiple cases of Russians suing other Russians in the English courts over stories on Russian-language websites that might have had a couple of hits in the UK.

This whole Diana thing is really telling about who holds the power in the UK establishment. All the papers are crowing about this because they hate the BBC and want to see it destroyed, but also to deflect in their own massive culpability in the death of Diana. The Royals come out hard against the BBC because while they hate the entire press, they know that if the tabloids really turned against the monarchy they could bring it down in a matter of months. But the BBC are successfully cowed, so can be blamed.

I mean the BBC is institutionally dogshit so I'm not really sad about what happens to it. Like Orgreave, Saville, Corbyn, at what point is it not just a self evident noncing pile of tories all the way through? I don't feel anything more about it than I would if the government started picking fights with the telegraph. OwlFancier fucked around with this message at 12:03 on May 21, 2021 |

Gruffalo Soldier posted:Behind the Bastards did a recent two parter on the Protocols, covering their genesis (plagarising plagarism), their usage by the Nazis, and their legacy. It's a good listen. loving about the Friar claiming the conspiracy has a periodical called 'Masonic Jew Magazine' and quoting from it. Very real publications. And of course various Jesuits were as heavily involved in Lat Am as the Russian secret police were in France. When all you've got is a secret society then everything else looks like secret societies. And double of course that it was mostly middle class conservatives who were most active in spreading it everywhere by trying to 'decipher' and 'unveil' it. Find out the true meaning of these 5 bits of unconnected plagiarized nonsense and feel smart and relevant when you're actually just running a racism powered orbital sander against your frontal lobe! There is definitely a certain 'conspiratorial style' in a bunch of other works that is strongly reminiscent of the disordered gish galloping "throw everything out in the order you think of it without citation or building an argument, more unfalsifiable nonsense equals more winning" that you see in everything from the John Birch Society to Alex Jones to Nigel Farage, but I'm not sure how much of that is direct Protocols influence and how much is a symptom of the minds that produce and accept those things. JK Rowling's essay has the exact same patter and cadence as a thousand early 90s conspiracy rants but I'm not sure that's evidence of a Usenet/Mumsnet nexus so much as them all having the same brainwrong that looks for an Enemy. Like Eco says, you start off believing that every social change is a Threat and then you go looking for confirmation.

I'm seeing this as part of the bigging up Wills thing (while dissing on Harry & Meghan). In the past few weeks there have been quite a lot of pro-Wills articles in various media. I imagine it's because post-Brenda, there will be Charlie Boy for a couple of years then basically straight to Wills as the Man in the Mace. Or, maybe Charlie Boy was more physically affected by his encounter with the covids last year than has been let on so maybe it will be Brenda -> instant, faster than light transmission (TM - T Pratchett) -> Wills? Plus, of course, the Tories wanting to make the BBC which is currently Tory Mouthpiece Central even more Tory.
