Hey, something's not right... ;).

Please clarify your point with a non-circular example.




I'm sorry, I don't understand what you're asking.


I read your comment as following:

> ... it has yet to happen ...

Ridiculous. To cite only one counterexample, it will happen.


Correct, that's what I said. The OP claimed that technical implementation problems were not considered a stumbling block for legislation, and I mentioned the "right to be forgotten" mess as a counterexample, where a fundamentally unfair, unworkable law has created a new human right out of thin air, one that's causing a lot of trouble for Google and other search engine providers.
