A: It seems that posting something on social media can be our digital track record. Do you agree?
B: Maybe so... as long as the admin of the platform doesn't erase or block our account. It might sound like a joke. Actually it's serious too.
A: You mean nothing is actually forever... like often said and quoted by many people? Writing or blogging can last forever, man...
B: I don't know about that. There're some hackers and internet viruses might destroy our digital contents. Not mention there're also some other digital threats.
A: So, you won't mind if your blogs might disappear in the future?
B: No... as long as it's not done on purpose. I mean internet itself is not perfect, right? There're some technology errors too. We often heard some data got erased accidentally due to such problem. Nothing is forever, bro...
A: That's sad. I just thought our posts can still be seen by next generation in the future. So, in short... there will be no digital track record at all, then?
B: Perhaps only some data can be saved. I'm not a scientist nor internet expert, OK? The word 'forever' we often heard might only have limited time meaning... let's say for 20-30 years, maybe. Forget about digital technology perfection, man. It's nonsense, I think.
A: No... this time I might disagree with you. I'm sure our posts are saved automatically and digitally forever.
B: It's OK to have different opinion. I just hope you can live long, let's say until the next 100 years... haha. Who knows, you're probably right.
