What would in practice happen in a two user scenario where user A replied to user B, and later user B's repository gets completely deleted.

We have this cache thing via wss connections. Do they invalidate this messages from user B? Is user's A worldview now completely dead?

Owning a thing in the internet is a complicated topic i guess.

Preserving past information via copying what a user said so that it does not get lost maybe also in the interest of some users (equivalent to the webarchive). I understand that this contradict the whole "owning your data" premise, but fundamentally since it was open in the first place the thing always can be copied right?

Whatever content is produced in this "open social" network, some of it may have long lasting "value" to an individual. Is there anything to make sure that what they interacted with can not completely broken by the other site of the party?
