I like sharing my thoughts and struggles here, but I don’t want it to be a permanent digital footprint and wish to delete all the posts and comments one day.

Its probably in a government database somewhere, it’s only inaccessible to you.

Reminds me of this joke (with a modern digital-era spin):


The son is accused of drug trafficking

The father: “I can’t access the cloud drive account on [Site Name]”

The son: “If you ever remember the password and get in, delete the account. That’s where my (drug trade) ledger is”

Overnight, the FBI filed subpoena to the cloud company requesting a copy of any files on any of [the father]'s accounts. Within days, the company compiled and send the info to the FBI.

[The son]'s defence attorney got a copy of the files due to the discovery process, and passed it on to the father.

The father: “Son, I don’t know how, but your lawyer just sent me an email this afternoon with all the family photos”
