Internet security is a global issue that requires global cooperation

[Commentary] Privacy is a global issue, as we were reminded when the European Court of Justice in Luxembourg ruled that search engines (the biggest two being U.S-based Google and Microsoft's Bing) can be required to delete search listings of posts, including stories in newspapers, that may be dated or irrelevant, even if they happen to be true. This ruling could not only affect US companies that offer search, but also those of us in the United States and other countries who use these services, even though the delete order was issued by a court on another continent.
