They are forgotten for all useful intents and purposes, but a malicious asshole can and will memorialize everything you say on it.

Without a trusted third party doing something like this on a large scale, it doesn't really matter - because 'nah, that's just a fake.'

My wife and I were recently talking about how we kind of luck boxed into dodging a bullet when we had kids (which was rather late). But it's no wonder so many people had or are having so many issues growing up in a public social media era. It's not only your right, but responsibility, to say, believe, and generally do stupid things as a kid and a young adult. It's an important part of growing up. Nobody should ever have to worry about this period in their life following them around forever.
