I beg to differ. The "right to be forgotten" only applies to data 
about the person, not to knowledge or cultural works that the 
person has voluntary published publically and by agreement with 
others.

This is not an instance of the "right to be forgotten".

I think that as a courtesy and friendly gesture, FSCONS may 
choose to unpublish the talk from Youtube, and from search 
engines. The talk should still be available to members in 
internal forums, and be preserved by the "National Library" (not 
sure what you call the equivalent in Sweden).

So make sure we have a copy/copies before it is removed from 
Youtube.
