An internet where individuals are allowed to have their skeletons kept in closet will lead to a censored internet. It is fallacious to embed the right to be forgotten in the right to privacy as there is a fundamental distinction between them. While privacy claims are justified by invoking libel or defamation for speech which is false, right to be forgotten is way more elastic, because claims can also be made on speech which is true. Further while privacy censors information unknown to the public but right to be forgotten censors information which was known to the public at some point of time. Scholars fear that all this would seriously hamper the integrity of internet based knowledge by producing patchy and biased results.
IV. LACK OF UNIVERSAL APPLICATION
The fundamental doctrine of any international law is its universal application transcending states and local law barriers. Although complete uniformity of law is not required, a substantial uniformity is necessary to achieve consistency. It not only will be difficult to formulate an international right to be forgotten because of the

It is near to impossible to completely take down content from the Internet, as past experiences have shown. The decentralization of internet means that effective monitoring is extremely difficult, if not impossible. It is important to note that the current judicial interpretation only allows forgetting search results and the information on the internet as such. The content remains unaffected by a request to forget in its original location on the Internet. Invariably, it also flows that the same content can still be found based on a different query through the same search engine. This does not qualify as ‘driot a lóubli’ but only a sort of end-run around it, the attempt is only to make content harder to find. Only the index is being teared away, the entire book and chapter within remain
Nowadays, “privacy” is becoming a popular conversation topic. Many people believe that if they do not do anything wrong in the face of technology and security, then they have nothing to hide. Professor Daniel J. Solove of George Washington University Law School, an internationally known expert in privacy law, wrote the article Why Privacy Matters Even if You Have ‘Nothing to Hide’, published in The Chronicle of Higher Education in May of 2011. Solove explains what privacy is and the value of privacy, and he insists that the ‘nothing to hide’ argument is wrong in this article. In the article, “Why Privacy Matters Even if You Have ‘Nothing to Hide’”, Daniel J. Solove uses ethos, pathos, and logos effectively by using strong sources, using
And it should stay like this since our private information is precious to us. And for it to be ripped out of our hands, and given to local, and state governments at large can be problematic. For example, using our precious information for something other than protecting our country, can cause certain restrictions, and regulations that are would be used on any type of socialization within the internet. Take Germany, Germany social media is targeting hate speech within social media platforms. And it is called the "Enforcement on Social Networks" the communication that is considered hate speech will be removed within 24 hours after enough complaints come in.
A major problem that has dominated the world in today’s society is the development of mass media. The mass media is said, “to be divided into two types: print and broadcast,” but the advancement of the internet became problematic. The internet allows the public to view the news by providing information between the citizens, and government faster than any other source. Consequently, this resulted in the decline of newspapers while more people began reading online. The negative effect of the internet is described as, “a wild west atmosphere” in which individuals may post whatever they wish online, “without professional, organizational, or legal concerns about its source” (Janda, Berry, Goldman, Schildkraut, and Manna, 2017, 148).
The “Nothing-to-Hide Argument” Analyzed: In this rhetorical analysis, I will be taking a look at Daniel J. Solove’s essay “The Nothing-to-Hide Argument,” which is about privacy in the context of personal information and government data collection (Solove 734). Solove’s main argument in his essay is that the general public has a narrow perception of what privacy really is. The purpose behind his main argument is to expose the problems with the nothing-to-hide argument while presenting a way to challenge it for his target audience, government officials. Solove’s argument to his target audience is effective through his exemplary use of substance, organization, and style in his essay.
International laws govern how countries and states should interact with each other international law has an impact on domestic laws through human rights treaties, importing and exporting of goods and global communications and connections. The Mabo case reflects this because the domestic law at the time didn’t match the international
This completely takes away a person’s right to privacy. The government has access search anyone’s internet or library records. Taking away someone’s right to read what they please also takes away the freedom of writing about controversial topics since anyone who reads it is intimidated by the government (Jacobs and

INTERNET PRIVACY When we say Internet maybe in our mind it’s about our social media right? But what does it mean when we say Internet Privacy? Internet Privacy, it involves the right or mandate of personal “Privacy” concerning the storing, repurposing, provision to third parties, and displaying of information pertaining to oneself via of the “Internet”. It is also a subset of “Data Privacy”. Privacy concerns have been articulated from the beginnings of large scale computer sharing.
Introduction In this article, Eric Poser has elaborated several reasons which made human rights a failure in international legal regime. The most highlighted issues are hypocrite policies of US and EU which has directly questioned credibility and integrity of their law and justice. The second reason is role played by Russia and China, the two major economic powers who in order to sustain their power, are involved in human rights violations. The third most important reason is standardized model of Universal Declaration of Human Rights which is ideal but not practical in various countries.
International laws are, by definition “A body of rules established by custom or treaty and recognized by nations as binding in their relations with one another” (www.oxforddictionaries.com). International law is a very significant topic because it affects everyone globally. In this research report, I would like to explore the advantages and disadvantages of international laws and consider if they should be enforced in all countries. The modern system we use today was developed in the 17th century in Europe and is still used worldwide (Stratton, 2009). After the Second World War, international unity became very popular (Neff).
Technology is growing at a fast pace and every day we see a new product or service that is available. Many times it is hard to even keep up with the latest phone, computer, game console, or software. There are so many different gadgets to choose from and even the internet is on information overload. As a result, we can no longer truly expect to have privacy.
"While the Internet-based economy provides many benefits, it also raises new concerns for maintaining the privacy of information. “Internet privacy is the privacy and security level of personal data published via the Internet. It is a broad term that refers to a variety of factors, techniques and technologies used to protect sensitive and private data, communications, and preferences.â€[1] As the federal government’s National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA)[2] explains: Every day, billions of people around the world use the Internet to share ideas, conduct financial transactions, and keep in touch with family, friends, and colleagues. Users send and store personal medical data, business communications, and even intimate conversations over this global network.
NET NEUTRALITY: Net Neutrality is also known as Open Internet and Internet Neutrality. Net neutrality is the principle that to treat all the data on the internet in same way by Internet Service Providers (ISP) not discriminate or changing differently by users, applications, and websites. OPEN INTERNET: The idea of an open internet is that all the resources of the internet to operate it easily by each individual and companies; this includes ideas like net neutrality and transparency.
International law is not law in the true sense of the term- Hobbes and Austin
" Our generation is one known for the internet. Many of us have never known a world without the internet. A good thing about that is that we stay informed on subjects from all around. A bad thing is cyber-bullying and negativity. But no matter what negative or positive place we withhold on the internet, one thing that stays the same is government control.
