I find the right to be forgotten very valuable in a world where everything is permanent, searchable and every little mistake will be used against you in the future.

How does IPFS deal with CSAM being published on it? Not saying it should detect CSAM, but once it is found, how does one go about having it removed? You use the same system to handle RTBF, and if you can't, then maybe a platform where it's literally impossible to delete something isn't a good idea (partly because undesirable content will ultimately outnumber legitimate content)?

If there's an internet where Facebook and Google can't spy on me, sign me up!

The impossibility of the assured annihilation of data is true of all protocols for data retrieval so long as client nodes are free and able to copy the data retrieved.
It's why removal of illegal content from the internet has been an abysmal failure.
