If you aspire for Public Office then leave your privacy at the door as you enter the Public Office. There is a reason its called Public NOT Private. Of course common decency suggests that there are certain issues that should remain private. What those are is a matter for the Public (unfortunately to decide). As the saying goes: If you find at any one time that the kitchen is too hot feel free to exit. Then may be you should be allowed to permanently delete your tweets. Though even this I’m not so sure will be possible. The number of times tweets are retweeted and favourited even Twitter may find it difficult to unravel that thread.</div><div><br></div><div>2. There is a deliberate, sustained and concerted effort by Governments worldwide to curb Internet Freedoms.

<br>
Does increasing geofencing threaten the integrity of the Internet?<br>
<br>
<br>
<a href="http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2015/09/france-confirms-that-google-must-remove-search-results-globally-or-face-big-fines/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2015/09/france-confirms-that-google-must-remove-search-results-globally-or-face-big-fines/</a><br>
<br>
Google's informal appeal against a French order to apply the<br>
so-called "right to be forgotten" to all of its global Internet<br>
services and domains, not just those in Europe, has been<br>
rejected. The president of the Commission Nationale de<br>
l'Informatique et des Libert?s (CNIL), France's data protection<br>
authority, gave a number of reasons for the rejection, including<br>
the fact that European orders to de-list information from search<br>
results could be easily circumvented if links were still<br>
available on Google's other domains.<br>
