Abstract

The right to be forgotten was brought under the spotlight in the Google Spain case, which held that individuals have the right to seek erasure or delinking of certain information about them. However, its apparent conflicting nature vis-à-vis the right to freedom of speech and expression has created a hindrance in its acceptance and development across the world. This Article outlines the development of this right, traces the practical legal issues vis-à-vis the freedom of speech and expression that have arisen during its implementation, and proposes a test that may be helpful in overcoming this barrier. The article also examines the recognition of the right in the Indian context.
