PT Journal AU Weber, R TI On the Search for an Adequate Scope of the Right to Be Forgotten SO JIPITEC PY 2015 BP 2 EP 10 VL 6 IS 1 DE CJEU; Data Protection Regulation; Freedom of Expression; Privacy; Right to Be Forgotten AB During the last decades, the virtual world increasingly gained importance and in this context the enforcement of privacy rights became more and more difficult. An important emanation of this trend is the right to be forgotten enshrining the protection of the data subject’s rights over his/her “own” data. Even though the right to be forgotten has been made part of the proposal for a completely revised Data Protection Regulation and has recently been acknowledged by the Court of Justice of the European Union (“Google/Spain” decision), to date, the discussions about the right and especially its implementation with regard to the fundamental right to freedom of expression have remained rather vague and need to be examined in more depth.
