The purpose of this work is to talk about the impact of the landmark decision is-sued by the Court of Justice of the European Union on 13 May 2014 on the right to be forgotten. With the Draft General Data Protection Regulation set to replace the Data Protection Directive and reform the EU data protection rules, this deci-sion brought Europe one step closer to this reform, recognising that in some cir-cumstances, notably, where personal information online is inaccurate, inadequate, irrelevant, or excessive in relation to data-processing purposes, links should be removed from Google’s search index. We will review the fact of the ‘Google Spain’ case and discuss the Court’s findings on internet search engines and the right to be forgotten.
