Welcome to the Contrafabulists podcast, Kin Lane and Audrey Watters' weekly discussion of the latest technology (and politics of technology) news.

In this episode, we discuss our new policy of deleting old social media status updates and the new White House Communication's decision to do the same.

Here are the stories we referenced:

• "I Flushed the Last 9 Years of My Facebook Profile" by Kin
• "New communications head Anthony Scaramucci deletes old tweets" via The Guardian

Apologies for the F-bombs.

Feedback is welcome. (You should email Kin with it though, not Audrey.)
