I know nothing about the subject, how does file removal work in decentralized networks? I understand once something is on the internet it's out of your control but what if I accidentally post a naked picture when I'm trying to sell something on decentralized-bay and I try to delete it immediately or a few minutes after? What about illegal content that I don't want to redistribute without my knowledge?

In our case, we have a tombstone delete method. So as long as every peer that saved your data (and people aren't gonna just save it for free) comes online at some point, after you've nulled/tombstoned the data, then it will be deleted.
This is only true because of our CRDT system that lets you update/mutate data. It is not true or a general property of other decentralized systems though.
