HCRG Care's lawyers claimed an injunction issued in a "private" hearing required us to remove two posts. We didn't comply.
HCRG Care was represented by the Pinsent Masons law firm in the UK in this matter. The injunction was issued by the High Court of Justice, King's Bench Division, Media and Communications List by the Honorable Mr. Justice Soole.
Pinsent Mason's attempt to get my web host to remove my posts also failed.
As always, I feel blessed to have the legal support of Covington and Burling's Kurt Wimmer Pro Media Freedom Initiative, which has represented my site pro bono for the last 16 years.
Read about the letter, the injunction, and why the High Court's over-reaching injunction endangers UK journalists and doesn't serve the public well.

Oh, and I'm not the only one ignoring the injunction. Medusa also got served with the injunction via tox chat, they tell me. And like other injunctions they have received, they are ignoring it. So what has HCRG really accomplished?

![This first ransomware payload was secreted on a 5.25-inch floppy disk titled "AIDS Information — Introductory Diskette 2.0" [h/t Heise.de]. The pioneering ransomware was developed by one American biologist [Dr. Joseph Lewis Andrew Popp Jr.], and about 20.000 copies were distributed to subscribers of the magazine PC Business World, various mailing lists, and even to World Health Organization delegates during a conference on AIDS.
As one may be able to deduce by the years and names being thrown around, this attack's choice of target was highly intelligent and the method of delivery exploited people's existing fears of a terrifying new biological virus at a time when knowledge of regular computer viruses was at an all-time low — much less an all-new form of malware meant to extort its victims.
Compared to modern-day threat actor attacks, only file names [not the files themselves], were encrypted by this ransomware. Thanks to this, effective software countermeasures ("AIDSOUT" to remove it and "AIDSCLEAR" to check for hidden directories combined into "CLEARAID") were developed by John Sutcliffe and Jim Bates to rescue impacted parties.](https://nerdculture.de/system/media_attachments/files/113/878/105/389/651/002/original/8abb6e71e9174c40.jpeg "This first ransomware payload was secreted on a 5.25-inch floppy disk titled \"AIDS Information — Introductory Diskette 2.0\" [h/t Heise.de].
