The Supreme Court of Appeal ("SCA") recently dealt with the tension between the right to privacy and the right to freedom of expression in the matter of Bool Smuts and another v Herman Botha.

The Supreme Court of Appeal has dismissed a farm owner's claim to the right to privacy after he was 'named and shamed' on Facebook for the alleged mistreatment of animals.

An animal rights activist who habitually names and shames offenders on Facebook has won the right to keep doing so after being challenged by a farmer who trapped and killed animals he regarded as vermin.

It’s not the job of courts to censor critical or impolite opinions and commentary, says the Supreme Court of Appeal.

Animal rights activist Bool Smuts won an important appeal case before the Supreme Court of Appeal on Monday.
