Those of us that have been around long enough rememberErinnF's infamous Diary
However -Good News may be coming for the likes of ErinnF
Teens Get "Eraser Button"
Now -- I am seriously wondering how this will all shake out for the likes of DailyKos
The law makes California the first state to require websites to allow people younger than 18 to remove their own postings on that website, and to clearly inform minors how to do so.
Compare this to the following from the FAQ:
Will you kindly delete my account, please?
Thank you for being so polite. Unfortunately, we don't delete accounts on Daily Kos once they've been created. However, you're free to delete any diaries that you've made in the past, and if there are any comments of yours that you fear expose your identity, you may send them to us and we'll review them for deletion on a per comment basis.
The new law is a ways yet in going into effect, January 1, 2015 - but I can't help but wonder the degree that this could change things for DKos!
Perhaps we will no longer be able to mock quite so freely with the phrase - Delete My Fucking Account Kos!
