Such proof doesn't need to 'result from a judicial decision,' the court said.
: This court ruling is part of a trend in which governments, both in the U.S. and abroad, are holding platforms increasingly responsible for the content that others post — which companies say could ruin the business models that have made them successful.The case originated from a complaint filed in Germany's top court by two managers of a group of investment companies, according to the CJEU.
They requested Google remove search results based on their names, which provided links to certain articles criticising that group’s investment model that they said contained inaccurate claims. The managers also requested Google to remove thumbnail images of them. But the tech giant declined to do so, "arguing that it was unaware whether the information contained in those articles was accurate or not," per the CJEU.In finding for the managers, the CJEU ruled that such proof does not need to "result from a judicial decision made against the publisher of the website."
The person seeking removal of online data only needs to provide "evidence that can reasonably be required of him or her to try to find" it, according to the ruling.
