Ever wonder if you can ask 'Google' to forget you


Wonder no more Google Transparency Reports  contains data shedding light on how laws and politics affect internet users and the flow of information online.Google transparency reports allows users to browse on the current reports of link removal requests from their searches.



A recent example is the 146,357 request received by Google in Europe to remove content related to embarrassing information about people's lives from from the search result.

Guess this set up a precedent for internet users to ask 'Google ' to forget them however to what extent its a feasible proposition needs to be defined while also striving to stand by its belief that all of the world's information should be universally accessible.
