Right to Be Forgotten

What’s happening? Legislation to allow parents and kids to petition tech companies to remove posts to ensure “A Right to be Forgotten”

Why is this important? It allows the ramblings of a 17 year old to not be used against the 35 year old version of themselves by their employer

How will this be important? We’ve all heard the refrain “Cancel Culture” how far back does that go? Should the internet be able to forget your ill timed and inappropriate posts?
