Agree. Also the model which the internet generally introduced was permanence to consequence of actions. However, this is kinda flawed when you look at the reality of an individual. There needs to be an opportunity for growth and change. One persons young hotheaded know-it-all opinion from being a teenager shouldn’t prevent that persons view from changing in the future.

This is much more a nuanced topic and less about getting rekt.

Accuracy of attribution (via keys) = good

Permanence (possible) of the internet = not always desirable


Back on the rekt topic I wonder if we could have an agreed standard on deleting posts (NIP-09) and if you wanted to verify it you could perhaps have a site where you enter your event Id and it challenges all known relays looking for a copy. Noting that it is in a relays best interest to actually delete these events from a purely resource PoV.

A more aggressive method may even be to spam relays with new events with an event then a delete event for it. It would likely force the relays hand to offload all ‘deleted’ content. But that is a very heavy handed.
