Google sets up ‘right to be forgotten’ form after EU ruling

Google is launching a service through which Europeans can ask for web pages relating to their personal life to be removed from search results, the Financial Times reports.The move comes after a landmark EU ruling earlier this month, which gave people the “right to be forgotten”.Google boss Larry Page told the FT that although Google would comply with the ruling, it could damage innovation.

Google Inc has launched a service through which European citizens can request that links to what they deem as objectionable material be taken off search results, the first step to comply with a court ruling affirming the “right to be forgotten.”The world’s largest Internet search engine, which processes more than 90 percent of all Web searches in Europe, said on Thursday that it has made available a webform through which people can submit their requests, but stopped short of specifying when it would remove links that meet the criteria for being taken down.
