So this is a right for Google to not show unflattering results but not about a publishers right to publish unfavorable content?
Is this not blaming the card catalog for the content of a book?
If the information is true, than how can we argue it should be hidden? If it is false, then that’s a libel case against the publisher of the false information — not the indexer.
If someone wants to be forgotten, they should be addressing the publisher, not the indexer.
The precedent of removing factual information from discovery is a dangerous one. It would seem like existing libel laws ought to cover cases where false information persists. Should a newspaper delete old content just because “people change?” That’s just crazy.
