Tell us more. In Europe there is a very important topic called in French "droit a l'oubli numérique" A bit hard to translate... It means, if you have, or other have, put some of your private data on the Web, but later, you want/need this data to be removed, you should be able to do it. There is Lawers working hard on that. This requirement may aslo occur on public data. Use cases: - change of identity of somebody, maybe a whole family for their security - someone is tagged by a third party on a picture and want this tag to be removed (the picture may be completly unrelated to the person like a porn or a racist picture just to give him a bad reputation) The fact is that with some very google friendly URL anyone could try some manually constructed URL to know if something has be related to another ex: Someone told me this guy was member of this organization I check -> GET http://thisorganiztion.org/members/john-doe <- 410 Gone HTTP1/1 If this wanted all his informations being removed from this organization website (he may not agree any more with its actions), here there is a problem...
