That wasn't part of the question that the court was asked to answer.

The ruling implies only that in the kind of situation that you
describe, the ruling will stop being applicable to the situation when
the change of relevance has occurred.

That said, I'm not sure that there is a significant issue here. When
old information suddenly becomes relevant again, I'd expect that someone
who remembers it will blog about it, and that blog post would
automatically not be covered by the decision of removing specific URLs
of old documents from the search index.

Greetings,
Norbert
