The first thing that comes to mind is if you have legal or business requirements to retain financial information, you may not be able to COMPLETELY remove all traces of a user.
- greenyoda 10y agoThat's a good point. One really obvious case of this is that if the user owes you money or you owe them money, you can't delete their account until the transactions are settled. And you'd need to keep the records for some period of time to be able to prove that you paid them, in case they claim otherwise. Or maybe you've paid the user and need to report the transaction to tax authorities (e.g., a form 1099). Or you may need to have proof of income or expenses in case you're audited by the tax authorities.
