Is it really possible that an English/British blogger could pop onto BookwormRoom here, read about who Mr. G is... and then promote the information... and then get into TROUBLE legally? This cannot be real. It cannot be real. Please tell me it isn't real. This is the worst sort of violation of individual rights that I have heard of since I don't know when. I sure hope this is satire. Is this satire?
