If a student thinks deleting a post leaves no record, which understanding is correct?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: The post may already have been seen, saved, or shared
Deleting a post may remove it from the original service, but it cannot undo copies made earlier. Someone may have viewed it, taken a screenshot, downloaded it, or forwarded it. This lasting possibility is part of a digital footprint. Therefore, users should consider the audience and possible consequences before posting rather than relying on later deletion.
