The BBC News report just says that "In addition, not everyone's details will be released. Those who featured in the 1939 register but who are younger than 100 today will have entries relating to them redacted. This applies unless it's proved that they have died, by researchers cross-referring with births, deaths and marriages data."

I assume the "researchers" mentioned are people doing their own family trees, not the FMP employees who are putting the database online. So you would need to prove that someone born less than 100 years ago is dead before you can see their records.
