Google loses ‘right to be forgotten’ case

But it is. Clearly in the article, both people wanted the record of their crime removed. This is censorship, pure and simple.

This is why the EFF opposes the Right to be Forgotten.

And the bigger questions: why the fuck is Google is soul source of record for things on the Internet. We need other viable search engines that are no subject to this kind of pressure.

I think the analogue would be that the library would have to remove it from the catalog and censor the librarians but still keep it on shelves because the original content isn't directly affected as the action is one step removed.
