There is no "Right to be forgotten".

In the context of Google's search results, according to the European Union's "Data Protection Directive" that's based on an interpretation of the OECD's definition of privacy, yes there is. You can't just declare there isn't such a thing as the Right to be Forgotten as fact. You may choose not to recognise it, but there definitely is such an idea that many people believe is a right.

In a wider context there are many countries where case law implies there is a Right to be Forgotten too, including the US. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_to_be_forgotten
