There are of course defamation laws that Grey could pursue if he really believes the statements made here are defamatory. But the kind of broader restrictions you're proposing would violate the First Amendment, so are unlikely to happen in the US any time soon.
The UK/EU doesn't have the exact same Constitutional guarantees as the US (certain policies like Right to be Forgotten are permissible in the EU, but would be unconstitutional in the US). However, I would still be fairly surprised to see a country like Britain adopt "right of honor" policies. In general, most people (both in the US and in EU nations) don't want the government to decide what personal experiences they can share online, or whether or not they can freely associate or disassociate with other people.
