Last fall, after leaving Twitter for good, I took advantage of a service called Semiphemeral to download my Twitter archive and delete the whole damn thing, while maintaining a now-empty account.

It took days, but it felt so good.

Welp, I guess that was just a cruel joke. Not by @micahflee but by the goon squad who now apparently run that hellsite. Apparently I am one of those people whose tweet archive was mysteriously restored in the past week.

@threatresearch @micahflee Well, 11 years ago Facebook said they never actually delete anything, ever. I would imagine Twitter is the same. When you delete stuff it's simply hidden, never deleted.
