Dijital Geçmişin İnternet Erişiminden Kaldırılması "Unutulma Hakkı" ve Türk Hukukunda Görünümü

Today, usage of the internet is spread all over the world and it became possible for individuals to connect to the internet. Hence, abuses of the rights on the internet increased. In this sense, the right to be forgotten, which is a more special aspect of the right to protection of the personal data, is started to be discussed again. Google-Spain decision made by the Court of Justice of the European Union on 13 May 2014, ensured judicial recognition of the right to be forgotten, which allows the connection made by using research history to be removed. Consequently, initially Google, all the internet browsers are also held responsible for judicial recognition of the right to be forgotten. The right to be forgotten is being applied by Google globally. In other words, it is applied only in the country where the claim was filed and Europe. This situation drew a lot of criticism. There are also debates that the right to be forgotten should not be implemented because of its conflict with the right to freedom of expression. The right to be forgotten, is a binding right among merely the European Union countries. Nevertheless, this right is in demand by non- European Union countries as well.
