This topic was addressed by Ms Heather Brooke in a feature article in today&#39;s Times newspaper  where she makes out the case very eloquently. As a barrister and expert witness I too have encountered similar problems in the UK courts and believe that no is the time for this Government to abolish the ban.&#34;]]></description>

We did not republish or link to them from new stories, but on this occasion plenty of other people chose to do so. ... We removed the stories from our archive even though in practice the details were easy to find, and the information had already been reproduced and cached elsewhere on the internet. Now that the restrictions have been lifted we&#39;ve reinstated the stories in the archive. Not, incidentally, a very practical or easy way of doing things if we had to do it very often.&#34;]]></description>
