The Right to Be Forgotten in the Case-Law of the Italian Court of Cassation

In Italy the Supreme Court of Cassation is at the top of the ordinary jurisdiction; it has the function of ensuring certainty and uniformity in the interpretation of the law. Some of its recent decisions concern the so-called “right to be forgotten” (or “right to erasure”), currently enshrined in Article 17 of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), in force since 25 May 2018 in the European Union.
