To be fair to Google, it opposed the European court ruling. But its implementation of it looks odd, perhaps clumsy.

I find it incredible that Google is held at fault in this case because they don't choose whether it is "inadequate, irrelevant or no longer relevant" in a way that fits the author's view. Such an analysis is so absurdly subjective, and it is impossible for Google to satisfy both sides.

The European Court ruling is pure absurdity, and this article could more accurately be titled "European Court Rules That Past Must Be Wiped. Much Comedy As Result."

There is no possible way that Google can implement it that won't endlessly earn them criticism, such as this piece.
