That's your opinion. The EU's opinion is that you have the right to be forgotten - though this is separate from GDPR.

- LocalH 7y agoI think the "right to be forgotten" should be limited to certain specific instances regarding long-ago conduct. I don't understand this desire people have to participate in society, then try to completely pull out and say "oh, not only am I not participating, but I want to also redact every piece of content I ever wrote". Forget the person, not their contributions.
- lone_haxx0r 7y agoDo you realize that a real "right to be forgotten" would mean forcibly deleting content from other people's memory? So, if such a right existed, people would have to get killed, or at least being hit strong enough in the head so that they forget the holder of the right. There are few ideas more totalitarian than a right to control someone else's memory.
