I think the real harm here is that someone like Taylor Swift can have her searches scrubbed. What about Jane next door? She has no such recourse.

- oceanplexian 3y agoIt’s actually the opposite. X is making these changes on their own. An individual out of the spotlight could probably sue. In the law public figures are not protected the way individuals are. When sell out and willingly make millions of dollars exploiting your likeness, you don’t get to choose if people make a parody of that likeness.
