metadata.value: The right to be forgotten is the right of individuals to exclude, restrict or delete links and personal
  information on the Internet. The article focuses on the legal basis of the realization of the
  right to be forgotten. In this regard, the provisions of the previously existing Directive 95/46/
  EC, the new EU data protection regulation, as well as the case law of the EU Court of Justice
  are analyzed. It is noted that despite the fact that the Directive did not directly provide for
  this right, nevertheless, its provisions allowed the EU Court to derive the right to be forgotten through an evolutionary interpretation. The author analyzes the doctrinal positions according
  to which the realization of the right to be forgotten can lead to censorship of the Internet. It is
  noted that if competing rights are not properly balanced, the right to be forgotten can lead to
  unjustified censorship on the Internet. Particular attention is paid to the legal positions of the
  EU Court, which in 2014, in a ruling in the Google Spain case, for the first time internationally
  enshrined the right to be forgotten. The arguments revealing the significance of this resolution
  for the subsequent realization of this right are given. With regard to extraterritorial application,
  it is noted that the EU Court of Justice is striving for a global application of the right to
  be forgotten, allowing member States to adopt more extraterritorial protective mechanisms.
  It is noted that until a consistent practice is formed, the right to be forgotten will continue
  to remain an “unpredictable” right. In conclusion, the author points out that only time is an
  indicator of whether the right to be forgotten can become the most effective way to establish a
  balance between government agencies, Internet service providers and Internet users.
