Right, but we did have efforts to take over hardware security enclaves to deliver user data, instead of copyrighted company data, to user devices.
Tim Berners-Lee tries to make the internet a place where you can choose, what it "forgets". At least that were the news I got from the 2010s and early 2020s. As for how: DRM-like tech in the hands of users should allow for that.
So having privacy by design would be nice, and e.g. many messengers try to do "it is inconvenient to copy a message that someone send you that is marked as view-only-once-or-up-to-a-timespan, but of course, you can use an external camera, i.e. make more low-fidelity copies or even exfiltrate data".
Even F/LOS software can use/would be forced to use these proprietary enclaves or at least non-user accessible key stores. (As far as I understand hardware level DRM.)

Tim Berners-Lee created the web, not the internet, which is what chat apps use. Also, unless you can provide some direct quotes about it being designed for "forgetting" stuff, I have no idea where these "news" you got came from.

If it's in the hands of the users, i.e. open source, it can be disabled at any moment, which is exactly what my reply already addressed.
