    If you’re federating the data to servers you don’t control, it’s impossible to guarantee deletion of it. GDPR requires that users be able to request deletion of their data

      I knew about that, but I thought it only applied to personal information (with limitations with regards to there being some professional entity collecting it). If I make a statement to the press that goes on print, I cannot demand them recalling papers in order to be compliant with GDPR.

      That being said, I am by no means very knowledgeable about this.

      If you’re posting anything online, it’s impossible to guarantee deletion of it. Anyone can scrape anything and store it anywhere for however long they want.
