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 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

Agreed. But a "reallocate storage space" command or button is less UX friendly. lol
