>Why are some of the comments here defending the deletion of facts?

I see people referring to the search results, the facts still remain in the original databases, so 10 years old articles should still be there.

Let's say I did something stupid 20 years ago, nothing major, if this is not important for the society then why should it appear on Google? Would you be OK if all your embarrassing moments are searchable on Google ? maybe you are lucky and not such moment was published but someone else may not be that lucky.
