The “internet never forgets” was always bullshit. Just a catch phrase from ppl who don’t understand how it works. It costs money to keep a server serving. Maintenance, support, upgrades, electricity, internet, etc.

Things are removed or lost on the internet all the time. The things you want to go away linger and the things you want to keep are fleeting. You don’t get to choose unless you’re paying. And those that are paying aren’t keeping what you want them to.

Afaik, the phrase is supposed to mean “don’t count on the internet forgetting something you want purged.”

Data hoarders/pirates are the reason “internet never forgets”. Who do you think retains those obscure pics/memes/videos?
