You try deleting data from a busy Cassandra node. The tombstones, the tombstones!!! (More than just Cassandra tho, many databases don't actually "delete", at least not immediately. They "mark for deletion", and may or may not _actually ever delete_ anything.) |

The database not actually deleting is still the application properly deleting it. If the DB eventually carries that out or not is a lesser concern to me, tbh.
The concern here is that facebook doesn't actually tombstone their entries or doesn't even have their DB mark it deleted.
