The IT is the main pro-EU paper. Originally it was known as the “Protestant paper”.

Of course they’d attack Google for looking at the EU ruling and seeing what it allows and doesn’t allow.

Thanks. I'm interested in this new EU 'Right To Be Forgotten' issue because of the 'Memory Hole' infrastructure that serves the interest of those who want to make information disappear ala Orwell's 1984.

The way the ruling stands right now, it's as if O.J. Simpson could petition to have every reference to his ordeals since the murder of his ex-wife stricken from memory, and every digital journal accessible to the EU via Internet would be bound to comply.

Meanwhile, 'privacy advocates' in the EU celebrate the ruling as being able to 'un-Tweet' anything offensive they may have said in youthful indiscretion.

That's my own interpretation. Maybe I'm off-base.
