[00:04.88]Should they be able to demand that an unflattering photo be permanently deleted from a website like Facebook? [00:11.30]Does everything people write online have to stay there? [00:19.44]What about bank details, addresses, can websites hold onto this information forever? [00:25.33]These were the kinds of questions being asked by the European Commission as it investigated the issue of Internet privacy. [00:32.99]Its guiding principle throughout has been what it called "the right to be forgotten". [00:38.24]It's now decided on what this mysterious sounding phrase actually means. [00:43.63]It means that a person does have the right to demand their personal information be permanently deleted if it is data that they themselves have put online. [00:54.16]But they don't have the right to have things like unflattering blogs or newspaper profiles written by others deleted.
