Title says it. Apparently lemmy devs are not concerned with such worldly matters as privacy, or respecting international privacy laws.

There already is federation of deletion. It's not even something that needs to be implemented.

I have less of a defeatist attitude about privacy. Same way I don't think absitence is the only true way of contraconception. Privacy, yes, even if public spaces is possible. It's not easy, it won't just happen, but it is achievable. Needs a lot of work from a lot of people, but it is doable.

I don't expect you to change your mind on that.

It's an optional feature, there's no way to ensure it actually gets respected. If it was universally implemented and it worked what would be the point of this whole thread to begin with?
