Hard no. There is such a thing as the right to forget. At least in Europe. Stackoverflow likes to take that right away as it earns them more money, but that is never a good reason.

That's not what that set of laws/norms covers at all.

Try publishing a book with any European publisher and then "right to be forgottening" it out of existence.

Right to forget can be achieved by unlinking the content from you, though, and making sure it contains no personal identifiable information. Doesn't mean it needs to be deleted.

Specifically since what you've posted on SO you've shared as CC BY-SA.

The right to forget is about removing personal information from a site, or removing articles about you from search results. An answer to a Stackoverflow question isn't really personal info.

"Hard no. There is such a thing as the right to forget."

This only exists as a wish, but is not written in stone and some people actually disagree to that.

Actually it does exists, as part of GDPR and then added into the law of individual EU nations.

Whether it applies to Stack Overflow posts is another discussion. IMO it doesn't due to Creative Commons licensing.
