The trick is to turn everything into randomized garbage and then delete it later. A lot of those purge services offer that feature. It just swaps the words with others; so on the surface it looks like proper written text, but it makes absolutely no sense.
Aside from removing your content that they're profiting from, it also feeds AI scrapers pure garbage in the event that your content is restored.
I can't tell if this idea is chaotic good, chaotic evil, or chaotic neutral.
So make it like the current iteration of Twitter?
Yep. I did that over a month to all of my posts and comments, then deleted it all a week later before deleting my account.
That's assuming they update their backups, or that if they do update their backups they don't keep historical versions.
IMO once the data has been shared it is no longer safe and there's nothing we can do.
