Facebook Says EU 'Right To Be Forgotten' Would Harm Privacy
judgecorp writes "The European Commission has proposed a "right to be forgotten" online, which would allow users to remove personal data they had shared.

How is it "abuse?" People sign up for it knowing they're posting a whole bunch of shit out on the internet where everyone can see everything. That's how the internet works. If you don't want something on the internet, don't put it on the internet. If you put something on the internet that you don't want on the internet, well, looks like you fucked up. How is that anyone else's problem?
