This has nothing to do with privacy either. The information is still there, just that google isn't supposed to include the information in a search result.

- coldtea 12y agoYou conflate "total inabillity to obtain the data" with privacy. Privacy can just be "partial inabillity to obtain the data" or "making it a little harder to obtain them". For example, your private life is private now, but there's nothing impossible about breaking it. Somebody could hire a private detective for like $1000, and have all your personal info, even phone calls, posted on the internet. It's the existance of this small barrier (having to go through this inconvenience) that makes you say, not some mathematical impossibility.
