If you wait for the government to turn against you to attempt to "disappear" it already to late.

The right to be forgotten is the wrong place to push for privacy, it should be the "right to never be known".

As to the "EU directives are all above board and documented" you know what they say about the road to hell, and good intentions right?

The right to never be known, in the sense in which I think you must mean it here, is fairly simple to obtain. Stay off the internet and stay off cell networks.

Oh, you mean you want to be able to have your devices send requests to other people's devices and have them respond, but at the same time, you want there to be no record that your device ever did this? Good luck with that.
