The real "event" is here:
"On Thursday, Google revealed that France, with 17,500 requests, had made more
demands for changes to search results than any other European nation. Germany had made
16,500 requests, and 12,000 requests originated in the UK. Some 8,000 requests came from
Spain, 7,500 from Italy, and 5,500 from the Netherlands.
By 18 July, Google had received 91,000 takedown requests in total, relating to 300,000
pages. Its privacy counsel, Peter Fleischer, revealed it had refused around 32% of them,
asked for more information on 15%, and removed 53%."
And another (past) event here:
"In May, the European Court of Justice ruled that citizens could ask search engines
to remove particular links from results for a search made under their name, if the
material was deemed to be out of date, no longer relevant or excessive"
