BBC pages removed from Google search results: 2019
Neil McIntosh
Managing Editor, BBC Online
In 2014 the European Court of Justice ruled that individuals can ask search engines to remove certain web pages from their results. Those pages usually contain personal information.
Google subsequently removed links from specific searches and continues to delist pages for some results. This includes some BBC pages. These pages are not removed from the Google index entirely, nor from BBC Online. The latest removals are listed below.
Read more on the BBC's archive policies and find lists of earlier removals.
One important caveat when looking through this list: we are not told who has requested the delisting. We should not leap to conclusions as to who is responsible. The request may not be from the apparent subject of a story.
