    If you post something on the internet, there should be no expectation that it won’t be preserved for an arbitrary length of time. Same as how you can’t legally claim that you expect privacy while in public

      This. Everyone needs to be mindful about what they post. You are communicating with real human beings afterall, with their own life history and memory.

      So be kind and give up the fantasy you can reverse your actions.

      Exactly, it’s like some people still haven’t realized that the second you post something on a website it’s no longer yours, it’s just a block of data on a server somewhere. You never “owned” that post, and the internet isn’t going to ask for your permission for it.
