"As far as I know, this is unprecedented," Jimmy Wales, a founder of Wikipedia who has campaigned against Internet censorship, told me. "It is certainly shocking to have come from the EU rather than from an authoritarian state."
It is controversial, indeed. But we need to consider that it also makes an exception for public interest. So, this opens a case by case solution for data protection, but does not cover politicians, public sector, and for sure not corporations or institutions. It is difficult to estimate the consequences of this case, but if a someone has enough relevance to be in a wikipedia article, we could understand that it is covered by the public interest clause of this decision clearly stated by the European Court.
Anyway, we have to pay attention, because after this, I guess we could expect lots of personal data elimination requirements. And, as Google was found responsible, Wikipedia will be as well.
We have to do a close follow up on this.
