The BBC intends to list BBC links which were taken off Google because of the EU decision on the "right to be forgotten".
Since a European Court of Justice ruling last year, individuals have the right to request that search engines remove certain web pages from their search results. Those pages usually contain personal information about individuals.
Following the ruling, Google removed a large number of links from its search results, including some to BBC web pages, and continues to delist pages from BBC Online.
The BBC has decided to make clear to licence fee payers which pages have been removed from Google's search results by publishing this list of links.

Hacking's just another word for nothing left to kludge.

It relies ONLY on someone trying to use the power of the state to hide information, only to have that blow up in their face because of their ham handed efforts to use governmental power for their own petty convenience.
Capitalizing it does not make it so. Try this experiment: There have been many cases of streisanding since the term was coined; how many do you even remember without having to google for them - which you can't do if they've been removed from google.
