But past behaviour is used in many courtrooms, including that of witnesses and victims. Is it such a big step that their blogs/ online comments might begin to make an appearance too?
I am comforted by the fact that at present it is simply an indicator of remorse (or lack of it) however.
For the record, if I made a stupid choice and it directly harmed another person my contrition would be real, no matter where I expressed it. I hope you wouldn't see me in a comedy prison uniform if I put a woman in hospital.
