If I were the subject of an English High Court order that included the text:

"Under paragraph 11(a) of this Order the First Defendant is prohibited from publishing further words that bear the following meanings, or similar defamatory meanings:
(1)The Claimant has abused, harassed and blackmailed many individuals online."

I would simply not publish further words that bore that meaning or a similar defamatory meaning
