The data isn't "deleted" if it's possible to "undelete" it 🙄

@Em0nM4stodon actually, we regularly hash our whole database and restored your data by bruteforcing the old hash, so… /j
@Em0nM4stodon But the tuple says "deleted_at: 2026-01-01 23:59:59"!!1!
@Em0nM4stodon "We've deleted all your private data" sent to your private email.
Yeah right.
@Em0nM4stodon "deleted_flag: true"
@Em0nM4stodon anyone who thinks Google (et al) are going to "actually delete" bona fide human interaction data are ... naive?
@meejah Not naive, but lied to by greedy or lazy organizations and institutions. That's the part we need to fix. The responsibility shouldn't be on the user.
@aral @Em0nM4stodon yes absolutely. I guess "naive" does sound like I'm blaming the victim (which was not my intent). Thanks
@Em0nM4stodon
Agreed. But a "reallocate storage space" command or button is less UX friendly. lol
