Publicity surrounding the celebrity injunction in relation to the publication of details of an alleged threesome shows no signs of subsiding. The UK press namely the Sun are in court later this week to try and overturn the injunction, the Daily Mail on a daily basis continues to publish stories of where the details have now emerged. We have learnt that the injunction is only applicable in England and Wales, so a Scottish Newspaper has published the names and picture of the supposed celebrity couple. It seems that the injunction stops any England and Wales based websites and publications even naming the Newspaper. We have now discovered a prominent UK based political blogger has published the details on their blog, it would appear they can do this as the sites hosting is based in the USA. It would also appear that a major USA television network has named the couple. A UK MP was supposedly going to use parlimentary privildege to ask a question in parliment naming the couple in the process in a similar manner to how Ryan Giggs was named a few years back. The speaker of the house has stopped the MP from doing this.

Today we learn of a Conservative MP who has been named who had the misfortune of dating for a brief period of time a couple of years back a lady from the website match.com who turned out to be a dominatrix. Once he found this out (she did not tell him) supposedly by the press tipping him off of an impending story he stopped dating her. The story was never published and has only just come to light. Conspiracy theory has gone into overdrive as the said MP is involved in handling the current press regulations in the wake of the phone hacking scandal. Certain organisations and opposition MPs believe he has been compromosed with the theory that the story was not published so it can be used with other stories to leverage changes to the regulations that restrict the press activity.

Both the names pf the celebrity couple and the third party involved are widely available on search sites and social media sites. It is also very easy to find details of the dominatrix though no injunction exists for keeping the name hidden.

Google trends makes interesting reading. So what is google trends; Its a website owned by google that displays the current search term trends i.e. what we are searching for. Just drilling into the site shows graphs of by hour, by day, by month, by years of search topic trends. As a user you can enter a search term and see how frequently the term has been searched over a specified period of time. Just using the celebrity name shows  large spike in the last week, with few searchs over the previous year; interestingly the site also shows related search terms and the names of over involve parties as readily identified.
