Abstract
PLATERO ALCON, Alejandro. The Right to be Forgotten on the Internet. The Phenomenon of Search Engines. Opin. jurid. [online]. 2016, vol.15, n.29, pp.243-260. ISSN 1692-2530.
This article is intended to analyze the issue of the ''right to be forgotten'' on the internet. This concept will be analyzed, from its origins, as petitions to protect rights, filed with data protection agencies from European countries, until its present application, configured as a quasi-basic right framed within the sphere of the basic right to data protection. Also, this article analyzes the work performed by Agencia Española de Protección de Datos, that was the first European agency to decide on penalizing the search engines for the misuse of data during their operation. These cases were heard by the Audiencia Nacional that performed a brilliant prejudicial process (from a technical point of view) about the operation of search engines with respect to the setting of the right to be forgotten.
Keywords : right to be forgotten; opposition; cancellation; search engine.
