        By your logic, Dustin, you too do business in every country in the world. Are you covered by all countries laws?

        If I was making money off of my posts, then yes.

        So because ML doesn't make money, it isn't covered?

          Since I post of my own accord and make no money from my posting I'm not "doing business".

          And how did you arrive at this leap of logic?

          Why is it "where people sign up from" but not "where they can sign up from?" there are so many illogical leaps here, I can't even tell what the basis of any of it is.

            @DustinB3403 ever gotten a new job since joining ML? You are covered by making money. You have, so you are.

                None of my posting has driven to job change. That is a completely illogical jump there and I don't appreciate the insinuation of such.

                Sure it has, it helps career growth and recognition. Prove that you've not learned one thing here, that your career hasn't moved forward, that it in way does it benefit any aspect of your career.

                  But all of the insinulations that we are breaking a law we are not covered by, that money is being made, that we operate illegally in Europe, that deleting accounts means deleting content over time... those are okay when they are not logical. But using your own logic, that makes you upset? If YOUR logic makes YOU upset, there isn't much that I can do.

                    This is like saying that reading and learning about IT hasn't affected your IT career. Everything you do affects your career, everything. Some things are negatives, like playing video games instead of working. Some are positives, like reading books about IT or participating in IT discussions.

                    If you've had job change, how can that not be affected by the career activities in which you are involved?

                          Explain this to me, let's say I have a computer repair forum. I do not block any countries at all, so everyone in the world that can access the site, can sign up. Let's say a user from Africa signs up, let's say Africa has a certain law about the internet forbidding some kind of content that is on my website. How does Africa enforce it's laws on me here in Texas (United States?)

                            He thinks he is proving that you can delete posts that you own. But that was never discussed and of course, you can.

                              In theory, but how many data service providers do you think keep all the data on the back end and just remove the links to the front end display? 😃

                                  Basically, it is just layers and layers of confusion.

                                  He thinks that by demonstating my point that he is proving his. He didn't realize that he just demonstrated what I was saying at the very beginning.

                                          The right to be forgotten means we don't get to ask those kinds of questions though.
                                          If I chose to close my account, that data has to go away at some point. Not immediately, but at some point.

                                          So here is the post that Dustin is trying to prove, but actually disproved because he was confused. The point was that you can only delete posts while you still have an account. He still has an account, therefore can delete posts. Had he removed his account, his posts would be locked in place.

                                          My point, exactly.

                                            They don't even need to remove links. Employee data is something you are generally required to maintain. You certainly don't delete it.
