Here’s one from the “shaking my head” department: If you assumed that all of the “Right To Be Forgotten” (RTBF) requests that people in the European Union are sending to Google are for unflattering or inaccurate web pages written by third parties, you’d be wrong. It turns out that Google is rejecting a lot of requests from people who’ve asked Google to remove content that the requestor authored him/herself. Say what? The folks at Reputation VIP — the company that launched Forget.me, the first service to help people submit RTBF requests — have detailed the results of more than 15,000 URLs that they've asked Google to remove since the service launched about three months ago.
