After a lot of internal debate I decided to publish my first Master thesis on the Right to be For... more After a lot of internal debate I decided to publish my first Master thesis on the Right to be Forgotten written during 2012 shortly after the Draft Data Protection Regulation was first published. It was written to complete the Masters in E-Law & IP at University College cork and was supervised by professor Maeve McDonagh.
Article 17 of the proposed Data Protection Regulation codifies the Right to Be Forgotten and erasure (RTBF) which aims to give subjects more control over their personal data thereby increasing the level of transparency and trust in the digital economy. The RTBF has become one of the most controversial elements of the proposed reform. This thesis provides the reader with a comprehensive analysis of Article 17 DPR and the role forgetfulness has and should have in the digital age.
In particular whether such a right is practical and enforceable and the role of forgetfulness in a social, psychological and political context.
Research question:
The research conducted for this thesis is based on the following question:
What are the implications of implementing the Right to Be Forgotten and Erasure, as it is codified in Article 17 of the proposed Data Protection Regulation, for data controllers, data processors and data subjects and is it currently practically and technically possible to adopt such a right?
