About Child Safety on Federated Social Media

Continuing my thoughts on “Delete by moderators”. It should probably be reflected in the Delete Activity, e.g.

{
  "@context": "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
  "summary": "Bad Actor was booted from our server for violating the law",
  "type": "Delete",
  "actor": "https://server.example/users/moderator",
  "object": "http://server.example/users/badactor",
  "shouldPropagate": true
}

The property shouldPropagate indicates here that all content by the user MUST be deleted due to legal reasons. Not sure if this is actually a good format, but I feel something like this will be necessary. At least, if the bad content ever federates out… not sure if the study addressed this.
