Yeah, one of the problems with content-addressable systems like IPFS is that they don't support the "right to be forgotten". And I've heard a lot of big supporters of content-addressable systems arguing that's a good thing, because links never break. But I don't like a world where I can't take down my own blog post[0], only unlink it from my home page.

[0]: Yes, I'm aware anyone can host a copy of my deleted page. But it will be served on a different URL, and it takes extra work to do, unlike IPFS or similar.
