I do put a lot of value on privacy, but I actually don't really find that problematic. I don't have the expectation to be able to just erase everything I wrote online, I assume it is public and persistent. So for things where I want to preserve private aspects I have to take that into account from the start. There are certainly individual cases where some post might turn out to be problematic later, but that's more of an exception and can be handled by manual intervention. I do find it annoying in some places how users can just erase their posts without a reason. Because they don't just erase their own content, they take the responses to it with them or at least make them less understandable. And those people responding did put some effort into it.
