They seem to be conflating "an original publication in the public
domain" and "already having spread a little".
It's entirely possible for me to subscribe to a service (online
especially, let's imagine it's a professional directory) that lawfully
published information about me, sourced by me, but for there to be a
contractual arrangement that I can ask for it to be deleted.
To some extent the same thing applies to later withdrawing consent for a
third party to publish information such as my electoral roll details.
