Germany has laws like that already and the GDPR includes the right to data erasure. Wikipedia has a lengthy article on this. The idea that somehow Google or other Big Tech firms are unregulatable is a myth. They very much are regulatable, given a strong enough political will, despite what united-statesian anti-regulation extremists preach.
