Let's not fall into the alarmist tone the media wants us to. The media is the one making threats, gaslighting and acting terrible. But Harry is largely following a template followed by other family members. He isn't suing for libel. But for specific illegal actions.
The British tabloids have been a blight on journalism for a longtime, dragging the whole industry with them in the never ending drive for profit.
If the papers don't want to cover Harry and Meghan, that is their choice. But somehow, I think the $$$$$ they get from those two will be rather too much to pass up.
The palace has refused to say what the claims are actually pending further briefing.

From what I gathered it was confirmed by the palace it is over hacked voicemails. It seems this is the old case and Harry is seeking legal action now.
You are right that criticizing people is not illegal but hacking and publishing private property without consent are and that is where they are hitting them. The Sussexes are taking very real legal actions where they can.
Some members of the media already have threatened to not cover their stuff. If that is what they want.... go for it. Will be interesting to see how long it lasts. No one should not do what is right in fear that the people who wronged you will retaliate. This is now up to the courts.
