> The era where all of our conversations and online interactions are recorded forever started in the mid 00's and ended in the last few years as apps defaulted to ephemerality, end to end encryption and no logging Which apps defaulted to ephemeral storage (other than Snapchat)? And how do we know if the ephemerality is only in our view or applies to the underlying data stored (in other words, how do we know our data is truly deleted vs. being hidden from our view, used for devious purposes without us knowing)? Also, where are the social apps with no logging? All the popular social communication platforms seem to want to hoard every bit of data we can feed them and never want to delete those at their end.
