Actually it's not, it's why he brought the case, he needed a business loan, and couldn't get one, and wondered why, when he inquired they told him about the article, and he did the research.

The point is that if Google or other search engines didn't exist, the information would be very difficult to find, and would be a very expensive exercise.
There have been cases in the UK where people have been turned down for jobs, and lost their jobs through things they have done or said on social media in the past, all found by using Google.
The court is saying that the information isn't relevant, and shouldn't be easily found in the public domain.
