I think a memory of even private information belongs to the rememberer, not the remembered, and that the dangers and damages of remembering are mild compared to those of forgetting.
- raxxorrax 5y agoI agree. It is still not really fair that such info can haunt you the rest of your life. Looking up such information is quite easy now. This article ironically makes it worse. Not only do Google results already look like ads, they probably already de-index politically inconvenient messages. Or at least bury those behind "reputable" sources that lie their asses off as their main occupation. This at least would have some justification. But in the end I agree that it isn't feasible.
- rsj_hn 5y agoDefinitely agree with the notion that "your debt to society has been paid". Right to be forgotten also seems appropriate here.
