Interesting. It sounds like there will be jobs available shortly at Google as they attempt to come to terms with an increase in requests for data removal.
Google should anticipate what kinds of information people will want removed, says top E.U. data protection official

Google has already received around 41,000 requests to delete links to personal information from its search results in the three weeks since a key ruling by the European Court of Justice about the so-called right to be forgotten.
On May 13 the court ordered Google to remove links to a Spanish newspaper notice about a mortgage foreclosure against Costeja GonzA!lez, a 58-year-old lawyer, because it infringed his right to privacy. The paper itself was not ordered to remove the information, but GonzA!lez successfully argued that the links displayed by Google to this information about him had become inadequate and irrelevant over time.

According to
The Guardian, the search giant plans to put an alert at the bottom of every page where it's been compelled to remove links in the wake of the recent, landmark
"right to be forgotten" court ruling.
Last month, at the command of the EU's Court of Justice, Google reluctantly put out a
"forget me" form to enable European Union citizens to request that it remove links that include their name and that are deemed "inadequate, irrelevant or no longer relevant, or excessive in relation to the purposes for which they were processed."
