    The New York Times article is here:

    Excerpt:
    >Judge Lewis ruled on May 6, before Mr. Max was notified of the suit and 
    >without holding a hearing. She told Mr. Max that he could not use "Katy" 
    >on his site. Nor could he use Ms. Johnson's last name, full name or the 
    >words "Miss Vermont."
    >The judge also prohibited Mr. Max from "disclosing any stories, facts or 
    >information, notwithstanding its truth, about any intimate or sexual acts 
    >engaged in by" Ms. Johnson. That prohibition is not limited to his Web 
    >site. Finally, Judge Lewis ordered Mr. Max to sever the virtual remains of 
    >his relationship with Ms. Johnson. He is no longer allowed to link to her 
    >Web site.
    >The page of Mr. Max's site that used to contain his rambling memoir now 
    >has only a reference to the court order.

    Declan,
    
    I've mirrored the Katy Johnson essay that a Florida judge forced
    Tucker Max to remove from his web site, as reported in yesterday's New
    York Times.  My mirror is here:
