Prince Harry has been awarded a "modest" sum of $180,000 by the High Court in London after a judge ruled that he was the victim of "extensive" phone hacking by the Mirror Group. The court ruled that Prince Harry's personal cellphone was likely hacked "to a modest extent," and that 15 out of the 33 news articles submitted as part of the trial were the product of accessing his mobile voicemail. The ruling is a reminder of the power of the press and the need to protect the privacy of individuals, as well as the importance of holding the press accountable for their actions.
