This is going to unleash hell when it gets big enough to be near the top google search results. Not only will anybody googling somebody know what they did, they'll know the person wanted it removed.

I wonder how long it will take for google to de-list the site.




An interesting problem -- is Google forced by the EU ruling to de-list anything related to the de-listing of a page?


Not simply for commenting on the de-listing, but if the page is republishing information that's considered a violation of privacy in the EU, it's still a violation of privacy. This would be clearest in the case of e.g. compromising pictures of high-school kids or other such non-public figures. If you started a site reposting those pictures after Google delists the original sites that published them, obviously your site would also be subject to delisting.


This is going to lead to super- and hyper-injunction levels of stupid.
