I know what that is, and I believe in the right to be forgotten.

The right to detach your (private) personal information from some content, doesn't mean you should have the right for your content to be forgotten.

Privacy is a big reason why. Archiving is also a very common way to dox people. Not to mention, I just don't want my shit to exist online indefinitely. I want my data to be forgotten. In what way is this bad. Hoarding everything indefinitely is bad.
