Abstract
ABSTRACTThis comment piece analyses the Supreme Court decision in PJS v News Group Newspapers Ltd. The case is an important source of principle on the availability of injunctive relief where the private information at stake becomes widely known. Despite this, the decision is a missed opportunity to clarify some of the key controversies within the misuse of private information jurisprudence. Specifically, the Court might have done more to clarify the nature and meaning of the enigmatic ‘freedom to criticise’ doctrine. The decision also adopts a controversial approach concerning the adequacy of damages where wealthy claimants are involved.
