An unlimited "right to be forgotten" would serve criminals, conmen and crocked politicians perfect.
The digital age is scarey in that it tends to preserve the past in a way that allows a mistake from five years ago seem like it happened just today.
For example, Mel Gibson. Two damaging recordings got leaked of him a decade or more ago and those cringe moments of his life will be preserved forever.
It wasn't like that before and this is not a cool feature of the modern age.
Mel Gibson is right-wing antisemite involved in a dubious cult. It's hardly surprising a concrete record of this appeared at one point[1].
You're not selling the idea that the "right to be forgotten" is for people who made just one slip-up. But there are certainly ways the right to be forgotten is reasonable - not for stars but for average people. My only point was it probably shouldn't be unlimited. That seems to strike a nerve but apparently among defenders of those who want long records of bad behavior concealed.
