> No. It's not up to you. You have no right (or at least shouldn't) to expect me from ignoring or forgetting any data whatsoever

But should I have the right not to tell you about myself?

For that matter, do you have the right not to tell me your credit card number and expiration date?

Of course you have the right not to tell me something. I'm not advocating coercion, quite the opposite.

So, people are allowed to make their own choice that they want privacy? Then what were you responding to when you said "no, it's not up to you"?

Sure, you're free to decide whether you want privacy or not.

Just don't believe this magically prevent others from accessing and using data that involves you. Don't expect me to respect your preferences when I go through you data.

Wow I hope you never have any amount of power over any computer system that handles data. Even for the brief moment before you are fired, what a disaster.
