Name suppression in New Zealand is when someone’s name or identity is kept secret by the court. It’s usually done to protect the person’s privacy or to ensure a fair trial.

I don’t see how a court ruling which didn’t involve you in any way can gag you in any way.
The reason the court can make a judgement that gags people not involved is simply because that’s what the law says. The law says there is such a thing as name suppression where no one can tell others, and it gets invoked by a judge saying so. That’s all there is to it.
The same way you have to pay taxes even though you were never involved in that decision.
