I don't really have an opinion on the 'right to be forgotten' here, but it surprises me to say the least, how everything is justified by being 'journalistic', as if there's something intrinsically good about that. As if there are ordinary people, who, of course, must behave appropriately, respect privacy and others' feelings — and are actually legally enforced to do so. And then there are 'journalists', who can do whatever they want, harass anybody, and it's all good and well and the 'freedom of speech' — not they only can do so, but it's actually moral. Spy on everyone, spread lies and disinformation, take your photos without your consent, tell everyone your secrets, wash your dirty clothes of 20 years old on public — even if these dirty clothes are not actually your fault and haunt all your life you as it is. Just… come on.
