It is estimated that [up to 88% of the data stored in the cloud}(https://volume.lboro.ac.uk/digital-waste-polluting-the-planet/) is ROT (Redundant, Obsolete or Trivial) #DataROT.
There are also "dark data": data collected by companies in the course of their regular business activities, but which is not used for any other purpose.
The service JS bin is often used for one time sharing, stores currently 130 GB of code. Most of it is ROT.
The current apps are designed to create data that live forever. Maybe it is time we set deletion time to the data, or at least an expiration time #futurBilletDeBlog.
So there are some ideas of the author.
One possibility is to introduce more friction in to the process of creating data that live forever. An account can be needed for example.
Email clients could be designed in a way that encourages (or even requires) users to configure settings for automatic deletion after a certain time period.
When companies make it so easy for us to create junk data at virtually no cost, while making huge profits themselves, they shouldn’t be permitted to pass the cost of cleaning it up onto the individual. They need to take responsibility for their own sprawling data problem, and its planetary impact.

The values of HTML are not exactly the ones of HTML first.
https://html-first.com/
The author recommends to include instead:
- HTML that is actual HTML, i.e., that is valid (common sense, until you start checking)
- HTML that makes full use of HTML features, i.e., that’s not XHTML–HTML
- HTML that is used according to purpose (aka semantic HTML)
- HTML that is accessible
