TL;DR Summary

A Dutch court has ruled that a prolific sperm donor, who may have fathered over 500 children, must pay a fine of around $110,000 if he donates again. The court also ordered him to immediately stop donating and call up any clinic where he has donated and request they immediately destroy his samples. The donor had promised mothers who used his sperm that he would stop donating in order to limit the risk of accidental incest but continued to donate anyway. The court ruled that "the interests of the donor children and their parents outweigh the interest of the donor in continuing to donate sperm to new prospective parents."
