The Right to be Forgotten (RTBF) has garnered significant attention worldwide since its implementation under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). It has become a highly publicized aspect of the GDPR, attracting widespread media coverage and legal developments across Europe. As individuals' data regulators, their role in addressing RTBF rights has gained increasing significance, making it crucial for them to stay abreast of the latest developments.

In response to this, the second edition of "The Right to be Forgotten: A Practical Guide" has been thoroughly revised and updated.

The increasing importance of RTBF in media content, particularly newspapers and television media, is highlighted in the new edition. The book explores how RTBF rights apply to these forms of media and the challenges that arise in balancing the right to privacy with the freedom of expression. It examines the evolving jurisprudence surrounding RTBF, particularly in light of the GDPR's understanding of RTBF and the landmark Google Spain and Google France cases.

The recent Google France case, which involved a request for the removal of search results linking an individual to criminal activity, is examined in detail. The book discusses the legal implications of this case and the potential for similar requests in other jurisdictions. It also explores the potential for group actions, class actions, and litigation funding in relation to RTBF issues, providing insights into the strategies and approaches that can be employed to support these types of actions.

It provides a comprehensive overview of the RTBF framework, including its historical background, legal principles, and practical considerations. The book also includes case studies and examples to illustrate the application of RTBF in real-world situations, helping practitioners to apply the principles effectively in their practice.

Overall, "The Right to be Forgotten: A Practical Guide" is an essential resource for practitioners, policymakers, and academics interested in understanding and navigating the complex world of RTBF.
