It's definitely designed to be clickbait and I doubt there will be legal repercussions, as mainstream publications do this literally every day. That's not to say that I agree with the practice, just that it's not at all unusual.
"IS PRINCE HARRY LINKED TO THE RUSSIAN MAFIA???"
Then 3 pages of waffle before "...no he isn't." This also doesn't originate from Graham Linehan, the "BlockedByHFromSteps" hashtag goes back a while and is how people discovered the "TERFblocker" list - the way to check if one is on said list, is to check if one is blocked by H from Steps. There is a genuine reason for the link and whether or not it's slanderous, it doesn't originate here.
I'd honestly steer well clear of this one or anything that looks vaguely like a defense of the TERFblocker list etc, personally. The stuff about the Challenors is very real, very disturbing, and... well... an exhibit A example of how laws and inclusion mechanisms designed to protect trans people have been exploited by criminals and paedophiles acting in bad faith.
I'm all but certain that it wasn't your intent to highlight the Challenors/TERFblocker.
