It was never acceptable, major service providers figured this out long time ago and added all sorts of guardrails long before LLMs. Other providers will learn from their own mistakes, or not.

So? I have those too; the difference is that:

1. The API is ACL'ed up the wazoo to ensure only a superuser can do it.

2. The purging of data is scheduled for 24h into the future while the unlinking is done immediately.

3. I don't advertise the API as suitable for agent interaction.

it's a great source of schadenfreude though, I love watching vibecoders get their shit nuked
