What does it mean to have a social network where you can't delete anything? I don't think we have quite grasped the implications yet

If you publish something on a public social network, there should be no expectation that it can ever be removed. It can be removed from indexing, and thus "mostly hidden", but someone can always keep a copy. And since it is signed content on FC, it's can be proven to be a non-forged copy.

I‘ve end gamed this partially already when people hard turned against me during some discussions and I think it‘s actually not so nice. IMO Warpcast and FC needs to give much better safety tools and allow users to control more. E.g. I should be able to control my digital space 100%

Is FC practically any different from X in this regard? In both, you can delete your content from the network, but people can preserve your content against your will be screenshotting or using APIs to download.

I guess you could say the same thing about onchain data as well, but I think it's so early and so much is being tested that even though it seems like a super impt question to be asking, it's not one we stop and think about all the time

Yes, and I wonder how Farcaster/Warpcast is going to comply with right-to-deletion requests Interesting thread on this: https://www.threads.net/@alex.stamos/post/CuYUQ3YLRBo/?igshid=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==

Allows for more robust onchain and pseudonymous identities, which is a building block for many crypto usecases like under-collateralized lending.

If I had social media when I was a teenager and couldn't delete the posts, I'd have been canceled for sure. So either the society will start being okay with "People sometimes say dumb shit but they change their pov" or we'll all get canceled for our drunk posts from 7 yrs ago.

I've had some interesting discussions in this recently on Twitter.. IMO, Web3 social without privacy is NOT an upgrade https://twitter.com/wslyvh/status/1676965069945708546
