Who cares about confidentiality?

All PR practitioners have to follow rules and restrictions about their professionalism. I was reading the Guardian article about chef Gordon Ramsay and his published personal information which was not supposed to be to public.

According to Guardian the information was sold by Phil Hall to Daily mail and had shocking results. In a court spokesman said that Hall "absolutely" did not know the provenance of the emails but the harm was done so there are no excuses.

He made a public apology and agreed with donation to Ramsay's charity. But even the apology doesn't change the fact that PR man did not follow the rules and did not care about his client's confidentiality.
Next time he has to read the rules again!
