Top EU Court to Issue 'Right to be Forgotten' Ruling in Google Case
The ruling comes at a time when tensions have been rising worldwide between the protection of an individual's data and freedom of speech. It also highlights the clash between EU regulators and U.S. tech companies.
Thank you for sharing!

In a case that pits privacy and the “right to be forgotten” against the right of free speech, the European Union’s top court is expected to issue a landmark ruling on Tuesday that will determine whether Google must remove links to sensitive personal data worldwide or just in Europe.
In a second related case, the Luxembourg-based European Union Court of Justice will also rule on whether links to websites that contain allegations about individuals’ sex lives or criminal records should also be removed.
