I don't think Google would particularly care if they only needed to censor French connections . They're clearly understanding it as a global demand. See http://googlepolicyeurope.blogspot.com/2015/07/implementing-european-not-global-right.html http://googlepolicyeurope.blogspot.com/2015/07/implementing-... >We believe that no one country should have the authority to control what content someone in a second country can access. Additionally, if this was all a misunderstanding, I believe it would have been cleared up by now, so the fact that nothing like that has come out in the last ten days tells me that they did understand correctly.

I think Google is purposefully being misleading about that. If you read the notice they link to, it says: Although the company has granted some of the requests, delisting was only carried out on European extensions of the search engine and not when searches are made from “google.com” or other non-European extensions. In accordance with the CJEU judgement, the CNIL considers that in order to be effective, delisting must be carried out on all extensions of the search engine and that the service provided by Google search constitutes a single processing. Nowhere does it say that the problem is that the results are still accessible from other countries; it's specifically about still being accessible on the .com and other domains.

  I don't see any motive for Google to do that. Does it make sense to you? Why would they agree to censor the .fr, but not the .com for French users? I think they do understand the notice correctly. And if it was that simple, why hasn't CNIL come out and said that Google is misinterpreting it? Also, what they link to is not the notice, which can be found here: http://www.cnil.fr/fileadmin/documents/approfondir/deliberations/Bureau/D2015-047_MED_GOOGLE_INC.pdf http://www.cnil.fr/fileadmin/documents/approfondir/deliberat... I don't read French (and putting it through a translater didn't help much), so can someone who can maybe tell us what it actually says?
