I guess our car is not our private space anymore, and we are not given a choice when buying a car from Volkswagen.

Ask anyone who works in IT and they'll confirm nothing gets ever deleted from all records and backups.

If it’s free ChatGPT everything is recorded and can’t be deleted or removed from their database. You can however delete data and opt-out of saving conversations, sharing conversation data with OpenAI if you have a paid account.

Maybe deleted from the productive database (if at all, as Reddit for example just flagged "deleted" comments apparently in the past).

But Backups, does data really get removed from backups? I don't think so.
