one of my favorite authors on the subject remains jean francois  
blanchette. he co-authored this article on the importance of  
forgetfulness back in 2002:

Blanchette, J.-F. & Johnson, D. “Data retention and the panoptic  
society: The social benefits of forgetfulness”, The Information  
Society 18(1):1-13 (January/February 2002).

blanchette's work is also interesting because it reflects on the  
tension between the unforgetting internet, matters of data  
authenticity, and the huge problem of data preservation.

and, here is an article that might be relevant about a court in the  
U.S. that accepted pictures from a social network site of a young  
woman enjoying a party a number
of weeks after a car accident with casualties in which she was the  
driver. The picture was used as proof that she lacked remorse:

Hi!
My friend Enrique Quagliano and me are running a little campaign about  
the
importance of forgetting in the internet, based on the work of Viktor
Mayer-Schoenberger (author of "Delete")
The New York Times wrote about this issue in this article:
http://www.nytimes.com/2010/07/25/magazine/25privacy-t2.html?pagewanted=1&_r=1

Do you know some cases of people loosing jobs, being threatened, etc,
through social networks?
Thanks a lot,

Alejandro Tortolini
