Great advice. If you are going to post something, think it through first.

It's interesting b/c one of the discussion points around permanent content is how people can make mistakes, and how people can change their minds.

But... if a statement you make is truly important, and you change your mind or you have a new insight, isn't it valuable to demonstrate to others how we're all changing, all the time?

For some additional context, I've got teenagers. I'm petrified of them posting something online which they could regret later. Which brings me back to the start of this note. If you are going to post something, think it through first.

And to those who will respond with "self-censorship is a form of censorship."" I'm simply recommending people be thoughtful, I agree free speech is sacred, you are free to say absolutely anything you want. You just have to own it. Responsibility and accountability is on the speaker. 

 Absolutely agree. People change. I have changed a lot since I went down the Bitcoin rabbit hole. 

What you say / write at any given time is based on who you are and how you perceive the world at that time. No more. No less.

Deleting stuff is an act of cowardice. It's easier to delete than to say "I was wrong. I have changed and this is my new take on XYZ".

Holding people hostage for what they wrote 10 - 15 years ago is at the very least childish and more often than not evil, based on certain agenda and an ill will.
