The news that voat has a new "partner" has me nervous. I'm making contingency plans in the event that the partner turns out to insist on some sort of "curation," or if it seems like they're here to use voat as some sort of honeypot. If that happens I would like to remove every trace of everything I've ever posted to voat, but before writing my own script I wanted to check and see if this is work that has already been done.

Just delete your account.
We wipe all your data, including content replacement, when a user deletes their account (make sure you pay attention to the options as you can leave content or anonymize it too).
It makes me nervous that you are a janitor on a system sub and are posting submissions like this.

searchvoat.co still links your deleted account username to your posts even though Voat anonymizes you after

This is something I've been wanting to work on but simply haven't had time.
I think I need to force partners to honor user deletes if they host content externally. It needs to be automated.

I already manually delete submissions from SearchVoat if they have been deleted from Voat and the user asks me to. I am also ready to delete an entire user's submissions if they have been deleted from Voat. I agree that it should be automated.
