An appropriate follow-up to last-week's topic of the use of credit-scores in
unexpected ways is today's on the 'social memory' of people created by anything
that appears on the internet referring to them. One of my favourite lines in
this piece is - Alex Türk, the French data-protection commissioner, has
called for a "constitutional right to oblivion"
Ah, the French - 'Liberte,
Egalite, Oblivion....'
This is a long but easy
read, and my first thought about it was - is there anything really different
regarding a person's reputation happening today because of the web?
