Dutch court bans prolific sperm donor from donating again.

TL;DR Summary
A Dutch court has ordered a man, identified as Jonathan Meijer, who has fathered between 500 and 600 children worldwide to stop donating sperm. The court ruling forbids him from donating more semen to clinics and he could be fined €100,000 per infraction. The decision came after a civil case started by a foundation representing the interests of donor children and Dutch parents who had used Meijer as a donor. They argued that Meijer's continued donations violated the right to a private life of his donor children, whose ability to form romantic relationships are hampered by fears of accidental incest and inbreeding.
