That's a great example ^ that demonstrates exactly how this vulnerability can be easily abused

Lenses.io user & data experience is at a totally new level .. feels like using Slack / but for real time data - and makes hard techs like Kafka & Kubernetes such a pleasure to work with !
It's quite interesting how Lenses blends the streaming data fabric with the application layer!

> How exactly do you "forget" the data on the logs?

If we think around the options, you can have either:

i) eventual deletion (log retention policy) ii) compacted topics (and push null values) iii) expensive re-processing of the entire log iv) expensive segment re-write operation

with each option bringing in a new set of challenges

As everything in life, to gain something, you need to sacrifice something else. With RDBMS you get mutability; but to go 10x or 100x faster/larger you need to make hard decisions.

HDFS, S3 and other systems have immutability in-built. Immutability is not bad per-se, as it give (some) assurance that data has not been tampered with, and although it could be implemented, the system cost could be significant.

Stricking the right balance is the challenge
