The story is about a tool that allows journalists to get advanced warning of court proceedings so them can choose to cover things of public interest.

It's not about any post-case information.

We should remember that local journalism has been dead for a decade in most of the UK, largely due to social media.

Any tool like this that can help important stories be told, by improving journalist access to data and making the process more efficient, must be a good thing.

Then it would be even worse if this ends up affecting post-case information.
