"Right to be forgotten" extends to newspaper archives
http://www.flanderstoday.eu/business/right-be-forgotten-extends-newspaper-archives
The "right to be forgotten", which allows members of the
public to have references to their private life removed from
internet searches, also extends to newspaper archives, the
Cassation Court has ruled ... The Rossel group said it
regretted the ruling, which it said "opens the door to the
rewriting of history".

Now they're going after primary sources, not restricted to search
results. This is an Orwellian nightmare in the making.
