The right to be forgotten on steroids?
That is multiple news outlets are reporting that they are affected by this.
Besides the BBC, the Guardian was affected:

And the NOS (the Dutch BBC):

Maybe it is Google trying to show their disagreement with the court order:

Tony McCreath originally shared:
Has your page been removed due to "Right to be Forgotten". BBC Solution, write about it more!
In response to a page being blocked by Google due to the new EU "Right to be Forgotten" rules, this new BBC article first names who they suspect was requesting the right to be removed and then links to the page that has been removed!
So the requester gets one page removed and in response gets a new one posted referring to it, And from the BBC!
Then they update the article with more speculation on why and who. They don`t know! Should the BBC be publishing this sort of speculation?
So this new article is now ranking for the poor fellows name who may or may have not asked for the original article to be removed. Either way he is not going to be happy (sorry for adding to it Mr O`N).
I predict a big mess!?
Why has Google cast me into oblivion?
