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

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.

With X I only need to request them to take down my content. Even if others index it, it still gives plausible deniability (esp. with more generative content/fakes/AI, etc.). With FC and other web3 socials, easy indexing + cryptographic proofs would make it hard to completely delete (or deny)

Privacy is too often an after thought. But should be built in by default on base/protocol level. Web3 social without privacy is NOT an upgrade

This is a good point. Literally everything is undeletable & undeniable. But I'm certainly not writing off web3 social (in fact I'm insanely bullish - composability & permissless innovation is a huge upgrade for creators & devs). I'm just saying we should take privacy implications very seriously
