@Em0nM4stodon
Agreed. But a "reallocate storage space" command or button is less UX friendly. lol -

@Em0nM4stodon anyone who thinks Google (et al) are going to "actually delete" bona fide human interaction data are ... naive?

@meejah Not naive, but lied to by greedy or lazy organizations and institutions. That's the part we need to fix. The responsibility shouldn't be on the user.

Yeah right. -

It's not deleted until you've done,
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/drive-with-data-to-destroyand let it run for about a month.

@the @Em0nM4stodon oh please run that through all the google servers just to be sure. and then shred their ssds ..

@Em0nM4stodon But the tuple says "deleted_at: 2026-01-01 23:59:59"!!1!

Really? Shred? Cool kids use full disk encryption and nuke just the key area should a drive be "wiped".

Even 25 years ago, just "zero" a drive was not considered enough. It would still be possible to recover data through. That's why the military wiping standards at that time required at least 7 cycles of 0x00, 0xff and random data. And then preferably demagnetising the drive.
Later demagnetising equipment became even stronger and got certified for top secret data handling, so just sending the drive through those devices was considered good enough.
All of this was for magnetic storage medium. SSDs and non-volatile storage modules is a completely different beast to tackle.
Deleting data is hard. It's like trying forgetting something you've seen or heard. Computers doesn't make this task easier.

@Em0nM4stodon actually, we regularly hash our whole database and restored your data by bruteforcing the old hash, so… /j

@Em0nM4stodon run a magnet over the hard-drives, that's my advice
this is why it needs to be YOUR computer, its much harder if its someone elses

(BTW in addition to the political issues with suckless in general, surf is doubly grating because it's not even minimal by any sense of the suckless technical principles, given its dependency on webkit)

I actually like Vivaldi in principle, my only (and large) issue with it is that its rendering engine is just Blink (but as far as Blink-based browsers go, it is the best).
suckless wrote surf, not netsurf.
This is netsurf:
https://www.netsurf-browser.org/
which has its own rendering engine.
This is surf:
which is the suckless webkit-based thing.

@50Percent_Cooler last time I tried I couldn't even configure Google as a search engine with the classic g shortcut. There's a difference between having solid privacy defaults and preventing me from using anything the way I want to use it.
