They don’t. And how are you going to check? Just fund their next study and stop being creepy.

  whoa, why the ad hom? it’s a valid question. the tools that organisations and governments use to do justice are often invasive or at the behest of companies who allow access to private data

    I think OP (the one you're replying to) was being sarcastic - by it's very nature, there's no way at all to verify any of this. Some government bureaucracy publishes some list of hashes that you're supposed to validate against and remove anything that matches - but you and I have no way of knowing or ever checking what those hashes match to. If somebody up there had an ax to grind against, say, Alex Jones, they could add all his stuff to the "auto-remove-this" database and nobody would ever know.

        That's because I wasn't talking about you.
