EU ‘asking Google to censor web’

New European regulations to force websites to delete data when users ask have been condemned by a leading lawyer.

Prof Jeffrey Rosen, writing in the Stanford Law Review, claims that proposals from Justice Commissioner Viviane Reding “could transform Google, for example, into a censor-in-chief for the European Union, rather than a neutral platform”. He said that rather than perform such a role, the search giant was more likely to simply produce blank pages for certain search results.

The current European proposals seek to harmonise laws across the 27 EU nations and will force sites to delete information shortly after consumers request it be removed. If they do not comply, a fine of up to two per cent of a firm’s global turnover could follow.
