LOL, that guy has been butt hurt lately, and looking for people to face off with. He's very serious with claiming the title of Satoshi Nakamoto, while he hasn't been able to prove he's even the one. He's just messing around and nobody believes that nonsense he's been saying, people are still looking for the real Satoshi Nakamoto.

Oh, and that reminds me that there have been a site that people believes is Satoshi website and when you visit the site you just see a countdown, seems like the real Satoshi Nakamoto plans to reveal him, her, themselves anytime soon. For now, Craig can continue to claim he is Satoshi, but I don't believe that. We will all see if he is at the end of all this.

I think in a court of law even if he is satoshi nakomoto the fact is that he has not proved that in any way at all aside from saying he "is" satoshi nakomoto shows clearly that it can't be defamation of character in any way or sense.

I would like to go back to that defamation of character later on but first lets see it from point of view of the judge, there is one person who has claimed to be satoshi nakomoto and have not proved that he in fact is satoshi nakomoto and we have someone who said he is not, how could you say that is true or not, there is no proof which means even if he is satoshi it doesn't mean someone can't say he is not, telling someone he is not someone else can't be sued at all.

Moreover, coming back to defamation of character, telling someone they are not satoshi nakomoto is not that, "you are a liar and scammer and you steal money and kill people" or whatever could be but saying "you are not satoshi" is not.

Here we have Craig Wright suing Peter McCormack for "defamation" as McCormack said Craig Wright isn't Satoshi on a pocast. In addition Craig Wright is attempting to file a gag order (see: injunction) against McCormack to prevent him from discussing this topic in the future. Gag orders and injunctions are extremely common in europe where they're utilized to essentially strip freedom of speech from citizens.
How Craig is going to accomplish that is still a mystery, if he could prove anything he could have done that earlier instead of these drama and since he flaunts his attitude and still claim to be Satoshi does not mean anything and this is yet another gimmick from him to get news headlines and nothing else, he produced fake documents in court from what i understand and how he is going to deal with all those is a drama in itself.

How can Craigh Wright claim 'defamation of character" when he has not proven beyond doubt that he is who he claims to be.His 'evidence' to be Satoshi Nakamoto has more holes in it than the holes in a doughnut shop.I am glad at the response of the entire cryptocommunity, several exchanges delisted BSV in protest- Binance.Coinhe..

Anyone can file a defamation case to anyone, That's why there will be a court hearing to hear both sides of the story and craig still needs to prove that person he is accusing really dafame him,. its gonna be a long bloody battle and waste of both money and time. Only lawyers will are happy with this fight
LOL, well he can use the statement that are all over the internet as proof because I am sure that there will be video proof of whatever the podcaster said on the internet, but I am not even looking at it from that angle.

The angle where I am looking at it that the court may not grant much audience to Craig is because, the subject matter has not legal backing, satoshi is a name and legally, he has not been approved to carry such name, and secondly, court still does not recognize any case that has to do with cryptocurrency for now, so those are the areas I feel Craig might lost the battle.

CW is going deeper and deeper into the hole

And it looks like that he cannot be stopped (not saying there is a need to, though). I'm curious if he himself understands that this is unlikely to pan out for him personally. But it is not just about him obviously as it is also about people who believed in him (at least for some time) and invested in BSV. Well, I don't really know if there are any such people but he definitely doesn't give a fuck about them. How did he ever come to make a name in the cryptoverse in the first place with such attitudes?

I always on my mind, imagine all people around the world saying to him. CSW Its FAKETOSHI, How much money he will use to sues all people just because saying he is not Satoshi Nakamoto. He already has a chance to proof him Satoshi Nakamoto, but he can't provide that and making a fake document just to want to be Satoshi.

I thought Wright has taken lessons from the backlash he got from exchanges for been an imposter and trying to fight the truth. It seems the government and the banks are the one backing Craig Wright otherwise he knows fully well that he is not Satoshi. If he was, he would have been very honorable in his character and speak less.
They never try to learn from there, they always try to create more and more FUD. The government and banks don't have any relationship with him. he is only a greedy person.
Just a simple task to verify if he is a real one or not. Remember satoshi was giving an answer to someone that was talking to him a few months ago and if he is true satoshi and he can use that account. The characteristic of satoshi was talk less do more.

I don’t think he has got any lesson from what happened to him last, the whole furore end up making him more courageous, have you seen BSV lately, even the almighty Binance could not keep the guy’s mouth shut, does a fool knows that he is a fool? Since he chose to be a fool. Let him continue in his foolishness.

People who are in the crypto space are not dullards for them to toss around as they wish, so the best would just be to see whatever they say or do, ignore it and let it go. I am sure whatever case he is dragging with the podcaster; the court will dismiss it if they have not even dismissed it by now.

Craig Wright is a man who always love publicity and has this grand assumption that he is a very important man in this side of the universe. Maybe this suit can be the best way for him to prove of his claim to be the real Satoshi Nakamoto so that the podcaster can be wrong. Anyway, we should be glad that Craig Wright is actually contributing something for the advancement of the blockchain and cryptocurrency movement and that is being a comical relief. Good job, sir Wright...way to go, man!

The scary part is no judge is smart enough to know what/who Satoshi Nakomoto is and why we can or can't call Craig he is not Satoshi, so the result could be anything and this baboon of a man will come out and say that he is Satoshi and this is the proof if some idiot judge just doesn't care and says "yeah fine he is or what not" and not even really do their research

In fact I see this case as no more than a publicity stunt

While Craig Wright as an attention whore and drama queen (or should I say king?). But we already know that. So whoever will be the judge in this case, he doesn't actually need to know who Satoshi is as all he has to do is see the legally binding documents that Craig Wright is Satoshi Nakamoto (like passport). Anyway, the burden of proof is on the claimant. Personally, I expect the claim thrown out of court for the lack of any real evidence

Dudes personal defense is he paid the website with his credit card and that should be proof enough that he is in fact Satoshi Nakomoto because he paid one domain with one credit card. That can't be enough reason to actually call him Satoshi but in courts perspective that could be potentially enough. I hope the reverse happens and court says he is not, that way at least he will shut up for a little while

I'm not sure this is the way how the court is going to check Craig Wright's identity

This case will never materialized in any court of law, This is nothing but a publicity stunt to make BSV relevant in the cryptocurrency market,. This story will soon be forgotten and life goes on with both parties involve.
I think he is really having his ways in this because BSV is actually getting stronger and always on the green zone, when bitcoin delisted the BSV, I actually thought that it will have some effect on the coin but it didn’t, which means whatever strategy the guy is using is really getting him the popularity he needs.

The only part I don’t like is him playing with law, he should have limited his game to the crypto environment and having to use legal means is way beyond his capacity and I don’t think too that any judicial system will listen to him. The court he is even going to, will they even be able to understand what the whole satoshi thing is all about. He is just looking for a way to shut the podcater’s mouth up.

Personally, i think this CSW issue is getting unnecessary attention in the space and it's preventing us from seeing the other bright side of the space.
Honestly speaking if Craig was to be the real satoshi, he wouldn't have planned to kill BTC in the first place. Even if it is his, we all together have taken it over from him. We gotta move on. He can't force us to adopt BSV. Crypto is about freedom lol
Yeah, Craig Wright is crazy and his claims are just baseless. It would be an easy thing for the real Satoshi to sign a message from a few of his old wallets he used in the early days and he can login on his Bitcointalk account in addition. That shows Wrights claims have absolutely zero legitimacy...  Roll Eyes

Witnesses are now testifying against him:

https://www.ccn.com/satoshi-nakamoto-expert-witness-testifies-craig-wright

Quote
An expert witness has filed an affidavit in the Kleiman v. Wright case, which alleges that Craig Wright stole billions of dollars worth of bitcoins from Dave Kleiman either before or after he passed away. The Kleiman estate is seeking damages in the neighborhood of $10 billion. Wright is defending the case with tenacity and recently submitted a provably fake e-mail as evidence.

One thing for sure: The e-mail was fake

In response to this e-mail’s filing and Wright’s subsequent motion that it be stricken from evidence, an expert witness has filed an affidavit on behalf of the plaintiffs.

Dr. Matthew J. Edman, a cybersecurity researcher who previously helped the FBI acquire Silk Road founder Ross Ulbricht’s Bitcoin stash, testifies that the e-mail was certifiably fake.

"Counsel for Plaintiff also provided me with the file DEF_00030487.mht, which appears to be a copy of an email sent from the Defendant to himself and that I understand was produced by the Defendant in discovery. The content of the email is identical to the content of ECF No. [144-1], including the PGP signature. The email was sent on April 16, 2014 at 10:22 PM UTC6 according to the date in the email’s header. If this time is adjusted to UTC+10, it shows that the Defendant sent this email to himself on April 17, 2014, at approximately 8:22 AM, i.e., about two minutes before ECF No. [144-1] was created and six minutes before it was last modified."

Craig Wright is defame by a podcaster and sued him? Then how the heck he can't sue John McAfee saying the same to him, man he's got no balls. Ambitious Craig S.W is a bully and needs to be disciplined at all cost.

I agree. Craig S Wright needs to be taught a hard lesson, that he is not going to forget anytime soon. But at the same time, I have a feeling that we should leave BSV out of this discussion. A lot of crypto-users have invested in that coin and almost none of them have anything to do with CSW. Let's keep the hatred directed at CSW and not towards BSV.

He cannot sue someone who don't have a permanent address. Since mcafee is in the carribean there's no way Craig will waste his time and money in suing someone from the region. So basically if the SEC can't touch McAfee then no one can Cheesy

Perhaps but I do not understand why. 90% of this coins market cap value rests in the idea that csw is Satoshi. If it is revealed he is not then it simply becomes yet another altcoin. For all intents and purposes it really is just another altcoin.

There are those who prefer the vanilla version of anything. True purists. It also looks a whole lot like a cult.

I am all for people having the freedom to support whatever coin they see value in, but in this case it's so cringe worthy that I can't stop feeling bad for all these empty headed CSW minions. Don't trust, verify, that's the motto in this space. CSW has had years to prove that he is actually satoshi by signing from an address containing the first ever block reward, but he hasn't done it.

Another thing is that these guys completely lost their mind with 1TB blocks, lol. Shit, first try to fill up 1MB then talk about serving the whole world on your centralized boob chain. Roll Eyes

This is a common thing. Everyone draws attention to themselves as they can. Wright chose a rather bold topic - to speculate on the name Satoshi. And he doesn't need to prove that he is real or not real Nakamoto, it is enough for him that there is hype around him and his name became increasingly popular and was often mentioned in the media.

Who cares? Why is everyone diverting unnecessary attention towards this dumbass anyway? He wants to shut everyone up who don't agree with his stupid claims.

The best solution in this case is to simply ignore him and not provide him the attention that he is desperate for. Truly embarrassing.

Bitcoin SV (  Rank 14 )

Market Cap: $1 027 107 917 USD

Who buys this altcoin? this is the problem of the crypto world and people like faketoshi have gained a lot of attention because he knows he has a group of people that he can manipulate easily. and this group of people are people who have hate bitcoin because of the way that bitcoin is going, something that should not happen, the community should be united.


There are still people who do supports this coin no matter what happen to CW.The price didn't have much impact to go down as the issue rises.
CW is taking this thing too far. Suing out people which shouldn't really be sued out because it do opposes that he's the real satoshi? What an unbelievable mindset he do have.

People will begin to hate Craig when he successfully prosecutes the guy, this is out of the real Satoshi's character, the real one will not do that, he cannot go out and just sue everybody that believes and announce he is not Satoshi, it's going to be very costly for him.

OMG, Does anybody still listening or reading what Craig Wright is talking? I thought this case was closed long time ago if he didn't have any evidences that he is satoshi and tried to cheat people sending public adress to some random old wallet and telling that is a proof he is satoshi.
Who will keep listening to those junky claims from someone like him, but unfortunately we live in a world where we have different assimilating level, some are reading what is happening and not just assimilating or taking it serious, and when the time comes and they dump this coin on them, they will blame ICO arena for this after going against on the warnings.

I check the BSV coin that craig’s  name is attached to and I realized that we still have many so many exchanges that has not delisted the BSV, this really made me gave up on people, they will rather be duped and scammed than to avoid being scammed.

There have been many posts on this forum where people discussed governments and banks conspiring to kill bitcoin, ICOs and crypto. Perhaps in this news story, we are witnessing the reality of how this topic plays out in the real world. One interpretation says banks and governments prefer to seize control over bitcoin, ICOs and crypto utilizing charlatans and shills like Craig Wright who an uinformed public might be fooled into believing is the real Satoshi Nakamoto.

Here we have Craig Wright suing Peter McCormack for "defamation" as McCormack said Craig Wright isn't Satoshi on a pocast. In addition Craig Wright is attempting to file a gag order (see: injunction) against McCormack to prevent him from discussing this topic in the future. Gag orders and injunctions are extremely common in europe where they're utilized to essentially strip freedom of speech from citizens.

I don't see this as defamation whatsoever. He's expressing his own opinion.

There is simply not enough evidence to suggest that he is the creator of bitcoin anyways. You're right about people being potentially misled into thinking that Craig Wright is in fact Satoshi, given his media presence.

I think that it's important for everybody to realise bitcoin is not something that depends on the founder of it to run, like a corporation. It is decentralised for this exact reason, there is absolutely no need to know the identity of satoshi, and if there never comes undoubtable proof that someone is indeed satoshi, people shouldn't even care this much.

These guys are all confused human beings; I taught government said they are not in support of cryptocurrency legally, so why would craig then succeed in suing peters over the false claim, since the case has to do with the cryptocurrency, so I expect court to dismiss the case.

If he even succeed in shorting peter up, will he succeed also in shorting us up and letting the world know how terrible a liar he is, if he is really satoshi, then he doesn’t need court, he only needs a live feed to really proof himself to lots of technocrats out there who would understand him, otherwise, he might be smoking stuff that is turning hi thinking faculty upside down.

I was also surprised either that the coin still maintain it spot on the capital but I'm the buyers and the investors of the coin are mainly newbies or Craig created a group which purpose are to manipulate the price of the coin.

I think once craig sends btc from the genesis block we can all be at peace and move on. until then he is a not who he claims to be
He's definitely not the real Satoshi cause the evidence he provided was not genuine and he's a kind of person that usually make false claim. Besides, he also claimed he designed the architecture for possibly the world first online casino which was implemented in the year 1999  so I'm not surprised with his false claim of been Satoshi.

I was holding some BCH in my wallet, and therefore I received the forked coins a few months back. After Craig Wright sued the podcaster, I decided to get rid of the BSV coins in my wallet. So today I transferred all of my BSV to my Gate.io wallet and converted them to BTC. My only regret is that I could have got more BTC if I had done this a few weeks ago.

One of the main reasons why Bitcoin SV is removed by Binance CEO. Craig Wright as we know claims that he is satoshi, however cannot prove it's claim. He has even started attacking people on twitter who keeps on saying he is not satoshi, I mean it is pointless, why would you even be butt-hurt if you haven't even proved that you are satoshi. Filing a case for because of it is getting way too far.

If he is Nakamoto then there is no need to sue people if they do not want to believe him, it is very uncharacteristic for the real Nakamoto to do that, he is not self centered like Wright, if Nakamoto wants to shout out that he created Bitcoin, he should have done that long ago, I believe that he is not Nakamoto.

You can literally sue anyone you want, that is never really an important thing, I can sue anyone for saying I am not satoshi too but that doesn't mean I will win. Hell even in a world like crypto when a judge who doesn't have a clue of who is who and what satoshi nakomoto even means the judge could rule in favor of Craig and it still wouldn't mean anything at all.

Does he think if he wins this we will all go "well if the judge said so he must have provided some proofs" and suddenly start believing. Dude literally knows that there is one 100% sure thing he has to do to prove and he is not doing that so there is no point of believing he is working towards anything else. He literally showed his credit card purchase for bitcoin domain as a proof that he was the bitcoin creator, he thinks we are that stupid.

Yes, the lawsuit has been filed in the UK where defamation lawsuits are easier to win than in the U.S., but I still think there will be obstacles for Craig Wright, especially if blockchain experts cast doubt on his claims. This can also backfire on him if he loses - it seems like a high-risk bet.

As by doing this he will gained attentions once more, just like what he's getting now, claiming that he's Satoshi Nakamoto without proving anything, this saga will continue as the court will make some ruling out from here, every information about this trial will be forecast and for sure we will see more and more updates about this, and the beneficiaries will be him (Craig Wright), he will keeps getting the scene.

Whatever happened there, Craig claimed will still a big doubt for people who believes in anonymity.

Yes, the lawsuit has been filed in the UK where defamation lawsuits are easier to win than in the U.S., but I still think there will be obstacles for Craig Wright, especially if blockchain experts cast doubt on his claims. This can also backfire on him if he loses - it seems like a high-risk bet.

"we  are all Satoshi"

anyway this is an endless drama, also enough boring.
I can't understand why he continue to promote himself as Satoshi... ok BSV but this can't be the only reason.
I think the real satoshi will be silent and develop what he created. no need to promote yourself to get recognition from the world. it's true that this drama will never end, even though the original satoshi appears, people don't necessarily believe it

Personally, i think this CSW issue is getting unnecessary attention in the space and it's preventing us from seeing the other bright side of the space.
Honestly speaking if Craig was to be the real satoshi, he wouldn't have planned to kill BTC in the first place. Even if it is his, we all together have taken it over from him. We gotta move on. He can't force us to adopt BSV. Crypto is about freedom lol

There have been many posts on this forum where people discussed governments and banks conspiring to kill bitcoin, ICOs and crypto. Perhaps in this news story, we are witnessing the reality of how this topic plays out in the real world. One interpretation says banks and governments prefer to seize control over bitcoin, ICOs and crypto utilizing charlatans and shills like Craig Wright who an uinformed public might be fooled into believing is the real Satoshi Nakamoto.

If it's true Craig Wright's the original Satoshi Nakamoto I think he will not insist in such a way only to defend BSV coins (as a coin that will kill bitcoin). Supposedly Craig Wright thinks healthy and focuses on the development and security of bitcoin only so that bitcoin has high competitiveness in the crypto market. If judged by Craig Wright's behavior which's still childish and only thinking of personal interests, I'm 100% sure that he's not Satoshi Nakamoto.

Gag orders and injunctions are extremely common in europe where they're utilized to essentially strip freedom of speech from citizens.



Freedom of speech via comedy is protected going back centuries and is unlikely to be over turned by any court.  In that respect I suggest we keep any discussion of craig wright suitably comedic as he is a complete Muppet and not close to credible on any account I've read of his accomplishments.      Suing anyone makes zero sense except in the context he wants to keep being paid by various conferences for the inference he has some connection to the original protocol and obvious discussion otherwise is not profitable for him.

It gains him what it didnt gain Satoshi Nakamoto, an audience of influence.    He needs to bang an empty drum because he has no ideas otherwise to fill it with

sends btc from the genesis block

I dont think anyone has the ability to do that anymore.   That was my theory anyway for some time, Satoshi Nakamoto went quiet to let his work speak for itself there on and I doubt that is reversed now

Who cares? Why is everyone diverting unnecessary attention towards this dumbass anyway? He wants to shut everyone up who don't agree with his stupid claims.

The best solution in this case is to simply ignore him and not provide him the attention that he is desperate for. Truly embarrassing.

Bitcoin SV (  Rank 14 )

Market Cap: $1 027 107 917 USD

Who buys this altcoin? this is the problem of the crypto world and people like faketoshi have gained a lot of attention because he knows he has a group of people that he can manipulate easily. and this group of people are people who have hate bitcoin because of the way that bitcoin is going, something that should not happen, the community should be united.


There are still people who do supports this coin no matter what happen to CW.The price didn't have much impact to go down as the issue rises.
CW is taking this thing too far. Suing out people which shouldn't really be sued out because it do opposes that he's the real satoshi? What an unbelievable mindset he do have.

I don't like the guy, but who would have thought he'd try to sue people for disagreeing on the matter of him being Satoshi. I find this interesting, since the court will probably ask for stronger evidence supporting the claim that he is Satoshi (say, unlocking his bitcoins). I don't know what this guy is thinking.. and I hope he is not Satoshi after all. If he loses this case, less people will believe in him, and that's a good thing. I wonder if it can be the case that he sincerely believes that he's Satoshi, whereas he actually isn't.

and most importantly why has nobody yet sued Craig Wright for stealing Satoshi Nakamoto's identity yet?
I'm no expert in law but, if you sue someone for identity theft, shouldn't the person who's identity was stolen be present in court (if the case makes it to court)? If so, how would Satoshi receive the court summon if no one even know who/where he is? I believe that's the reason why Craig keeps claiming he's Satoshi, because Craig knows that the real Satoshi Nakamoto won't throw away a lifetime of anonimity just to prove that Craig is lying.

Plus, do we even know if "Satoshi Nakamoto" is actually a real name and not a pseudonym? If it's the latter, then "Satoshi Nakamoto", for legal purposes, wouldn't fall under the 'Personally identifiable information' (PII) or legal identity, thus using that name (like Craig does) wouldn't qualify as 'identity theft'. I might be wrong, though.

He has lost the respect of the crypto users and by now his reputation is permanently tarnished. Even if he proves that he has something to do with Satoshi (which looks highly unlikely), I don't think that he'll be able to clear his name. Anyway, I have a feeling that we should ignore this loser. Why we should give him any publicity?

His reputation is already tarnished years ago when he claim to be Satoshi but can't proved it. And the more he goes out in the public and invest things up, the more people hate him and debunked all his fake claims. He doesn't have to clear his name, his stunts lately really show what personality Craig has. Yes, I agree that we should ignore this fraud. I'm sure that he didn't have any basis whatsoever about his libel or whatever you call it. His case will be thrown in the garbage, that's for sure as it has no merit at all.

The only question for Craig is that if he is truly santoshi why the creation of bitcoin SV and have he answered to the fraud allegations against him before sueing another person for deformation of character. It evidence the delisting of his bitcoin sv from binance and other exchanges will serve him a great warning against future action against bitcoin.

One of the main reasons why Bitcoin SV is removed by Binance CEO. Craig Wright as we know claims that he is satoshi, however cannot prove it's claim. He has even started attacking people on twitter who keeps on saying he is not satoshi, I mean it is pointless, why would you even be butt-hurt if you haven't even proved that you are satoshi. Filing a case for because of it is getting way too far.

CW is suing everyone that is against him. He is making himself the laughing stock of the century. Everybody knows that he is not the real Satoshi and yet he still insists on his claims. When will this guy ever learn and stop all these nonsense claims and suing people for telling the truth?

This is a risky move on the part of Craig Wright. What if the court orders him to prove he is Satoshi, and he can't? That pretty much nails his claims that he is satoshi once and for all.

There is trouble abrewing
nowadays we keep reading how Craig Wright is desperately thrashing in the waters while being drowned and keeps on suing different people because they make the most obvious statement: "Craig Wright is not Satoshi Nakamoto and instead he is a scammer".
but i am mostly wondering what the results of these legal actions are? i mean are the courts finding these people making such obvious statements guilty?!!!

and most importantly why has nobody yet sued Craig Wright for stealing Satoshi Nakamoto's identity yet?

The drama continues, as Haunebu says that we should ignore any news or drama from CSW. Lets he do everything he wants but lets ignore it because the more we share about what he do the more attention he will get. That's what he wants and he will continue the drama but if no media cares about what he do then he may stop what he has started since few years back.

I think that the whole forum is fed up with posts about Craig Wright.
He is just claiming that he is Satoshi but he can't prove it so why we keep posting news about him over and over again?
The best punishment for him will be that Bitcoin SV is going to be delisted from everywhere as it has already been done in Binance Exchange.
Just stop giving him attention and everything is going to be better.

The Craig Wright crypto legal fight is heating up.

The controversial digital-asset entrepreneur filed a claim in a British court on Wednesday, accusing podcaster Peter McCormack of writing a libelous series of tweets about him in March and April over Wright’s claim that he developed Bitcoin under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto.

The lawsuit, seeking damages of 100,000 pounds ($129,890), was filed in the High Court of Justice, Queen’s Bench Division. It also seeks an injunction to prevent McCormack from publishing similar comments in the future.

McCormack, who’s been previously warned by letter, announced that he’s been served earlier today on Twitter. He did not immediately return a request for comment.

Wright has also warned Vitalik Buterin, a co-founder of the cryptocurrency Ethereum, that he’ll be sued for defamatory comments, and also has accused anonymous Twitter user Hodlonaut of defamation.

Bitcoin SV tumbles after Binance delisting
In response to Wright’s warnings, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, Binance, delisted Bitcoin SV, a coin Wright supports, earlier this week. After plummeting sharply, the coin’s value has risen 5 percent in the last 24 hours, according to CoinMarketCap.com.

Here we have Craig Wright suing Peter McCormack for "defamation" as McCormack said Craig Wright isn't Satoshi on a pocast. In addition Craig Wright is attempting to file a gag order (see: injunction) against McCormack to prevent him from discussing this topic in the future. Gag orders and injunctions are extremely common in europe where they're utilized to essentially strip freedom of speech from citizens.
