EU's 'right to be forgotten' now extends to inaccurate claims about people
The determination could help shape interpretations of the EU's General Data Protection Regulation . You'll not only have the right to remove search data on privacy grounds , but to pull content that's demonstrably false. This could theoretically help European residents reduce access to misinformation and slander, even if they're uninterested in filing lawsuits.
There are questions that remain. Notably, the court decision doesn't directly address parody. It's not clear if someone could ask Google and other search engines to delete content that's fake, but intended as a joke. It's also unknown if this could be used to hide content that's largely accurate, but includes a glaring error. A complainant could theoretically use this to minimize criticism by targeting less-than-perfect stories.
