Contempt of court for offering videos???

Not sure how likely it would be, but while reading this (lengthy but informative) article on Understanding How Damages Are Determined in Patent Litigation, I found the second paragraph was somewhat disturbing:

"One of the remedies generally sought in such litigation is an injunction. The injunction might be a preliminary injunction pending the outcome of litigation and ultimately a permanent injunction prohibiting infringement of the patent. Refusing to obey an injunction opens one to penalties for contempt of court."
