Google has announced the introduction of changes in the work with the "right to oblivion" and search queries from residents of the European Union concerning this right. Since 2014, when the Court of Justice of the European Union passed a law, the Google "right to oblivion" on the European servers to hide information that was considered "inadequate, inappropriate, irrelevant or unnecessary". This means that if someone from France makes matching the search query, the company removes such information from Google.fr site, but it remains on Google.com.
Now inappropriate information will be hidden at all search engine domains, including Google.com. However, there is one "but": the company will use the information about the user's location (that is, its IP-address) to determine whether to show him the information relating to the "right to oblivion". Therefore, information about the resident of France in the search of America will be different from what you can get by searching directly from France.
Such restrictions can be easily bypassed by using VPN-service, but Google blame impossible.
