El derecho al olvido en la era digital. El caso de Google en España y El Tiempo en Colombia (Jurisprudencia)

In the Google v. Spain case, the European Court of Justice allowed the deletion of personal data, published by third parties, from Internet search engines. Accordingly, personal data can be erased whenever the information is irrelevant –even if it is not harmful, although it is true and even if it has been legally obtained. In contrast, in the case Gloria v. El Tiempo, the Colombian Constitutional Court reached a different solution although the facts where similar to the Google Spain case. I will argue for the importance of recognizing the right to be forgotten whenever (i) the dissemination of personal data is harmful to the individual and (ii) as long as the the personal data is not of public interest. The non-existence of this right can chill democratic expressions on the Internet, and it might contribute to the asymmetry of power that exists between individuals and controllers or processors of information.
