While I don’t particularly care about this specific thing, I have read articles and what not suggesting that the times we live in…. In the future, are going to be similar to the dark ages because there won’t be much data that survives from all of these companies deleting everything…
MySpace is another example… geocities before it…. We have paper zines that were printed in small quantities from before the internet was around, but stuff on the internet just disappears…
I think that’s why they even started the internet archive.
I don’t care if its seen as entitled as someone else said. If companies want to make money as a monopoly they should be held to a higher standard. They have to give us a bonus for selling data, why else am I going to use their service.
Regardless I do think it is a sign of the times, going dark on data will do nobody besides oligarchs any good.
