More than that, the government solicitor seemed to arguing that even discussing it would be deemed illegal under the law. From what I heard and read later I got the idea this was a broad-reaching law where even if I referenced American Beauty or Lolita in a blog post I could be found to have broken the law. I'll admit to being slight confused by all the issues as well but this is what I got out of it.
