A GOVERNMENT Deputy has taken pains to draft a bill to create a new law, the so-called "right to oblivion".

In a nutshell it means delete  without further ado all references on Internet -obviously not good actions, - when people who  feel affected  so require.

This "new right" is facing another long practice: the "right to remember". Who defines what is a personal or public act? Just imagine not being able to read the memoirs of the nation, art and magic would be prejudiced  by this legislative initiative.

We citizens have the right to be informed and to have access to the historical memory of the country. If this initiative had been a law before the Internet,-which is an excuse to create this initiative-, perhaps we would not know what we know today about our ancestors and therefore would have lost part of our history.

New technologies pose new challenges and these are faced with remedies that are necessary to study and evaluate before even thinking of  such disproportionate legislation compromising the right to freedom of expression and information.

Mr.  Deputy you and your substitute have shown a fixation in regulating freedom of expression. Remember that by limiting the fundamental right of freedom of expression the development of a genuine democratic process is affected.
