 "Los Alfaques, a bucolic campground near the Spanish town of
  Tarragona, isn't happy with Google. That's because searches for
  "camping Alfaques" bring up horrific images of charred human
  flesh-not good for business when you're trying to sell people on
  the idea of relaxation.  The campground believes it has the right
  to demand that Google stop showing "negative" links, even though
  the links aren't mistakes at all.  Are such lawsuits an aberration,
  or the future of Europe's Internet experience in the wake of its
  new "right to be forgotten" proposals?"
