Abstract

Human memory's intricacy can also be linked to the "Internet of things." Human life has been seen and documented by the developing digital realm throughout its history. The peril of the digital past is a current concern for internet users worldwide because of the internet's vast accessibility and perpetual memory. The idea that everything should be remembered but nothing should be erased has sparked a contemporary discussion about the "Right to be Forgotten" (RTBF) in digital space. As a result, RTBF gives a person the ability to manage who can access his information on the internet. However, the laws that have just been passed in India have very little control over information and data, and the RTBF concept is still foreign. The RTBF's importance in Indian domestic law is thus hypothesized in this study. The purpose of the paper is to demonstrate the need for and implications of acknowledging these social forgetfulness rights in cyberspace.
