Ability to Forget Unwanted Past Experiences
tracked
JacksLiver Resident
Some Experiences become active on our accounts without explicit request or permission. These are often linked to Gateways or Events and remain attached even after the event has ended or we never return to the Gateway. Currently, there is no option to revoke or forget these experiences.
I propose that users be given the ability to opt out and fully forget any experience they did not explicitly choose, ensuring greater autonomy and control over our digital presence.

The title of this suggestion made me laugh and think, "Don't we all? Why doesn't this have all the upvotes?" But then I realized you weren't talking about first life. Hehehe. �

LYNNiAm Resident lol yes, that's true. But I meant a technical issue inSL, really and thank you to get onboard!

I will add to this - some experiences not EXPLICITLY MADE by LINDEN LABS cannot have their permissions revoked once accepted, and remain active and attached forever, bound to ones' account. The fact there is no warning of this, no note that this is happening, and no ability to opt in or out makes this a touchy, dangerous security issue.
This matter of un-removeable Experiences needs to be addressed, and it should be ruled further that NO experience not EXPLICITLY produced BY Linden Labs itself should be impossible to remove, with NO exceptions to this.
Should a malicious actor find a way to manipulate this system, a vast swath of users across the Grid could find themselves compromised.
Whilst it might be frowned upon to name names here, this impossible-to-remove status has been granted to Firestorm's Experience.

Rheia Silvercloud, even some old abandoned Linden Lab Experiences linger and those should also be removed as are of no use at all.

JacksLiver Resident I by no means disagree, though I find the idea that non-Linden-made experiences are being given a non-removable status, elevated thus to the status of, essentially, "official" experiences without falling under the control and purview of Linden Labs, a far greater concern as pertains to things such as account security, etc.
Allowing this privilege to popular or persuasive individuals or teams is almost begging for some bad actor somewhere to take advantage of this trust.
I most thoroughly agree, though, that older Experiences should also be removable / cancel-able.

I had a moment of frisson when I saw the title of this request :-)
