Do you really own your content when you can’t delete it or restrict access to it?

In traditional social media the big companies own your data.

With Lens the public owns your data as soon as you publish it, which is truly amazing and opens up a lot of opportunities for builders and researchers.

However when everyone can access your data, even your „deleted“ posts and comments, do you really own it then?

        Really good point and this is what next generation Lens would solve. Your data is yours to control.

          This reminds me of the saying:
          “Once the genie is out of the bottle, it cannot be put back.”

          If you own a secret in your notepad, once it’s out - it’s out. Now the people who saw it will share the ownership of the secret knowledge (unless you remove all witnesses lol).

                Hmm... I've never actually thought about this, but I agree. What do you think can be done to solve this, considering that the posts live on-chain?🌹

                  I talk so much that the public doesn’t want my stuff.
