The point I wanted to make is that increasingly such actions nowadays are futile because they can be easily circumvented by social media and sites like Wikileaks.

Has it been served upon you? I can see bloggers being bound by a specific court order against identifying witnesses in a particular case, because that binds anyone who goes into court to observe it. And a blogger who passes comment on a case in progress risks prosecution for contempt of court just like anyone else who makes such comment widely available. But an injunction has to be served, and whilst under certain circumstances this can by done by advertisement that rather defeats the point of a secret injunction! How are you breaking the injunction? Has it been served upon you?
