At some point after we have reduced pollution significantly, we’re gonna have to clean up all the trash we already put out there. Microorganisms can regrow, but plastic can’t, so we just need to find the maximum collection speed that the environment can sustain.

Thanks, wouldn’t have seen it without your message

Mine has been rusted shut for ages. I wish you could disassemble and clean them

I doubt they actually delete anything when you do that, unless you legally force them.

I once heard that some printers print (almost) invisible yellow dots on pages, containing data which helps authority track down whoever printed the page. That might be a risk if the data is really sensitive.
