What strikes me with what's happening with the "Right to forgetten" is how it "shouldn't" work this way IMHO. When something shameful/problematic for some people go down in history, it must not be dealt with in the future by "removing" it from history, but rather by educating, improving. E.g.: for these persons who found themselves in trouble, showing they're not this kind of person anymore, or that this was a mistake and they know it.
The "Right to be forgotten" is an attempt to rewrite/erase history, while the correct thing to do would be showing these facts are, actually, "history".
