Thanks to CTOnews.com netizen Alejandro86 for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com, Oct. 1, according to Forbes, The Globe And Mail and other media reported on Saturday local time, the US Federal Court of Appeals recently passed a ruling by a 2-1 majority: Google is not a news and art organization and does not comply with the exemption provisions.

Tu Yuan Pexels's ruling will prompt Google to take stronger measures to protect personal information in Canada. At the same time, it also means that Google will face new challenges in the field of Internet search in Canada, as it accounts for more than 75% of the Canadian Internet search market.

"Google search does not collect, use or disclose personal information for the purpose of 'news reporting', and if any, it is not entirely for that purpose," the judge said. "

According to the report, the ruling triggered a discussion on the "right to be forgotten". (CTOnews.com Note: people require their personal information not to be searched on the Internet).

Valerie Lawton, a spokesman for the Canadian Privacy Commissioner's Office, said he was glad the court agreed with their position because it showed that Google's search engine services were regulated by the Federal Privacy Act. "this provides an important clarification for the application of law in this field," she said. "

The case dates back to 2017, when local people complained to the Federal Privacy Commissioner that an online article about him caused personal injury, employment discrimination and a continuing threat to his life. He wished to remove his information from the search results provided by the search engine and to file a complaint with the Privacy Commissioner, who dealt with the complaint under the Canadian personal Information Protection and Electronic documents Act.
