​Just wrote an article on my blog on Spanish ​newspaper ABC.es concerning
this crucial ruling: http://abcblogs.abc.es/ley-red/
[In Spanish, sorry!!]
Google does searches; the ECJ will have it adjudicate on "privacy" from now
on. And yet, how can Google substitute to a judge on issues as relevant and
touchy as these?
Best wishes.
