The right to be forgotten is fundamental in the digital age The current debate over the right to be forgotten, spurred by a European Union ruling that allows people to stop certain web pages from appearing in search results, is proof – if further proof was required – of the distinct form of public life that is being created by the internet. Our digital identities are shaped by how, when and where we interact online with each action leaving a tiny but permanent digital footprint.
