EU rules Google must remove wrong search results
STORY: The EU’s top court on Thursday (December 8) gave Google a new headache.
The European Court of Justice handed down a big decision on data privacy.
It says the search giant must remove data from search results where users can prove that it is inaccurate.
The case concerned two executives who wanted to remove results linking their names to critical articles.
Google had refused, saying it couldn’t be sure if the information in the pieces was really wrong.
On Thursday, the ECJ said search engines must act where data is “manifestly inaccurate”.
It said users shouldn’t have to wait for a judicial decision to get wrong material dealt with.
Back in 2014, the same court enshrined the so-called “right to be forgotten”, under which people could ask search engines to remove results linked to their name.
Since then, Google says it has worked very hard to balance the right to information with the right to privacy.
