So many imitations flooded the market, that James M. Cain believed he deserved credit and remuneration.

In 2005, while Murdoch's trial was still under way, the film Wolf Creek was released in Australia. As the film was marketed as being "based on true events", the Northern Territory court placed an injunction on its release within the Territory, in the belief that it could influence the outcome of the proceedings. However, the movie was inspired by other murders around Australia, such as the Backpacker murders, as well as the Falconio case. Lees agreed to a televised interview with Martin Bashir, which was later televised in Australia, for which she was paid £50,000.

This was later confirmed when Gaddafi's son served the paper with a libel writ which later admitted the true source of the information. According to Shayler the 1994 bombing of the Israeli embassy in London was known to the intelligence services before it happened, and could have been prevented. The British government later placed an injunction on the republication of Shayler's claims although this was later lifted on 2 November 1997 allowing the paper to print his claims of how the bombing of the Israeli Embassy in London in 1994 could have been prevented if the service had acted on prior knowledge it had obtained. On 19 June 1998 he told The Spectator magazine that the security service had information that could have prevented the 1993 Bishopsgate bombing.

Washington passed one of the first cyberstalking laws in 2004, which states that a person that uses electronic communications with the "intent to harass, intimidate, torment, or embarrass any other person" if they use lewd or obscene language, use language implying physical threats, or repeatedly harass a person; such is treated as a gross misdemeanor. However, the constitutionality of this law has been challenged in courts, with Judge Ronald B. Leighton of the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington ruled in February 2019 that the law as written could include "a large range of non-obscene, non-threatening speech" and that "As a result even public criticisms of public figures and public officials could be subject to criminal prosecution and punishment". Judge Leighton placed an injunction on the law to block its enforcement pending appeal. Washington takes the approach of putting the focus on cyberbullying prevention and response directly on the schools.
