This article is about Yahoo and Microsoft’s Bing search engine have begun responding to “right to be forgotten” requests for search result deletions in Europe, joining Google.
  • “There have been 699 demands for ‘search engine result’ removal requests on Bing handled via Forget
  •  since the 23rd of July, representing a total of 2 362 URLs. So far, 79 requests have received an answer from Bing,” explained the company.
  • Bing published its request form in July, but the first removals have now taken place according to reputation management firm Reputation VIP’s Forget.me site, which helps people submit requests.
I think that the right to be forgotten campaign is a great thing as users of the internet will fill more secure in the future and less of people can know who you are with just a click.
