Interesting. This consultation was also in the news in NL - mentioned as a
'committee of privacy experts from different countries that should come
with an advise on how Google should handle the right to be forgotten'.
Being considered is a win on itself, but we should be careful that they
don't tie our name to whatever outcome this committee might come with,
unless we agree with the whole outcome, i guess.
Anyway, my personal views are a bit more nuanced towards the right to be
forgotten than most people involved with this topic (I'm not sure it's
necessarily a Bad Thing in the long run - if there are sufficient
safeguards in place). I think the best way to approach this is an open
dialogue as much as possible but I'm guessing this is already pretty open
for Google :)

Hello everyone,
I was contacted by Google's Brussels policy office team today and they
want to meet with me and talk about the recent ruling by the Court of
Justice of the European Union
<http://curia.europa.eu/juris/document/document.jsf?text=&docid=152065&pageIndex=0&doclang=en&mode=lst&dir=&occ=first&part=1&cid=276332>
that allows users to request information about them be taken off by search
engines.
They want to discuss their approach in this matter in more detail and
answer any questions we might have.
Dooes anyone on this list have a particular question they'd like me to ask
them?
Cheers,
Dimi
