The UK's Information Censorship Office (okay, it’s not called that. It’s really called the Information Commissioner's Office), anyway, the ICO has ordered Google to remove links to stories about right-to-be-forgotten stories linking back to stories that Google has agreed to remove links to because of right-to-be-forgotten requests.

Got it? Okay, let’s try again.

At least nine people have complained to the ICO about Google linking to new right-to-be-forgotten stories that contain links to the original stories that they requested Google not link to anymore. So the ICO has given Google 35 days from August 18 to remove links to those new right-to-be-forgotten stories or face stiff fines.
