Obviously the "people" in this case are the proprietors of news websites, web indexers, etc. If we look at the intent of the law (causing someone to be erased from public view), we could also argue that the public is being forced to forget in a moderately less concrete sense. I use the "memory wipe" analogy because the people advocating for censorship are using the euphemistically passive "forgetting" analogy. Not my choice, I'm just keeping it consistent.
