Even if they're given a court order to take a version down? It may be their policy, but I guarantee it will happen at some point.

We will comply with the law where required.

Court orders will be a lot less frequent than normal user requests so the overhead to the team won't be as high.

Of course, and I totally agree with their approach. I'm just saying the narrative eridius is pushing that somehow they can make assurances about things never being deleted totally false. For example, I'm sure if someone somehow put child pornography in a Rust crate it would rightly be taken down pretty fast (and not require a court order).

Also I just wanted to give a little history because eridius's original comment made it sound like it was a novel concept.
