There is no right to be forgotten in the real world. If anything, damnatio memoriae[0] was a punishment, not a privilege. Just as well, you can't ask for world population to forget a nursery rhyme, or me to forget I saw you riding a Segway. The internet is part of the real world. Everything happens in the real world, 'IRL' has been deprecated.

People (and the sub class 'legislators') should accept that.

Just because it's called the Right to be Forgotten, doesn't mean it actually entails burning memories off people's heads. You're arguing against a strawman.

Thank you, and I understand. But I'm arguing that the internet is part of the collective memory of Man.
