TRK and another v ICM [2016] EWHC 2810 (QB), [2016] All ER (D) 71 (Nov)
The Queen’s Bench Division granted the claimants injunctions, restraining the defendant from engaging in harassment of them and from making disclosures which they alleged would represent a misuse of their private information. To allow disclosure of information flowing from the defendant’s unauthorised, wrongful act of hacking to harass the claimants with threats of disclosure of their extra-marital relationship would be to permit the use of such wrongdoing as a springboard.
