This story on the BBC describes the results of someone (who it is is not clear) exercising their "right to be forgotten".

I have strong opinions on this topic, described here.

Since I do not approve of this kind of back-door censorship, I am posting the link to the BBC journalist's blog (which Google says will no longer be shown in search results for clients in Europe) here, and encourage others to do the same.
