    It is not possible to completely delete one's digital presence on the web. Once information is uploaded or shared online, it can be stored, copied, and distributed by others. Even if someone deletes their social media accounts or removes certain information, traces of their digital presence may still exist in various databases, archives, and backups. Additionally, search engines may still index and display cached versions of deleted content. Therefore, it is difficult to completely erase all digital footprints and have a completely clean slate on the web.
