Anything that might make someone unemployable that didn't result in a conviction or other defeat in court.

I should have a right to make people forget that I have a bad attitude, never shower and am prone to cursing anyone in my vicinity?

  The topic is arrests. The fact you never shower is not going to get you arrested.

    You didn't actually limit what you said to that topic. You said there should be a "right to be forgotten," and when someone wondered what it should apply to, answered "Anything that might make someone unemployable that didn't result in a conviction or other defeat in court" (emphasis mine). The fact that someone never showers falls under that heading. At no point have you said anything to suggest you were only talking about arrests, and the EU law does not limit itself that way. Did you instead mean for it to apply only to arrests and nothing else?

      > Ya, stuff like that is why we need a right to be forgotten in the US. People tend to see an arrest and leap to conclusions. I say this as a person who has never been arrested. :/ > Anything that might make someone unemployable that didn't result in a conviction or other defeat in court. > The topic is arrests. The fact you never shower is not going to get you arrested. I guess to me the pattern was obvious but I accept it wasn't obvious to you. Yes, the topic is related to arrests & court cases.

        OK, just so I'm clear, which is it: Is the topic limited to arrests and court cases or is it just related to arrests and court cases? You seem to object to my comment on the former grounds ("the topic is arrests"), but you have not been restricting your statements to those topics. I find this a bit frustrating, because you keep making broad statements, but object to commentary that is equally broad.

        I reject your comment on the fact its groundless and in no way related to arrests being published by the media. I'm not sure how I can be any clearer. If it isn't directly related to arrests by a single degree, it isn't on topic imo.

  Yes, because you did those things as a baby. We all did.
