Google has received 2.4 million ‘right to be forgotten’ URL delisting requests and fulfilled 43%

Google revealed that it has received 2.4 million de-indexing requests following the “right to be forgotten” (RTBF) ruling in Europe and has acted on 43 percent of them.

The new figures constitute part of the internet giant’s semi-regular search removal transparency report, which it yesterday revealed will now provide further details on the kinds of requests being made and who is making them.

Google has also published a new research paper called Three years of the Right to be Forgotten, which is designed to “illuminate the effect” the RTBF ruling has had — and is having — on information access.
