They can delete your account.
Throttle your reach.
Shadowban your posts.
But they can’t touch what you own.
And that’s why this post—and this blog—exists.
Why This Matters
If you built anything online—content, strategy, writing, systems—and you don’t own the platform you built it on, you’re always one policy update away from losing it.
Instagram, Twitter, Medium, Pinterest, Substack—they can vanish you.
Or worse: they can monetize your ideas after you’re gone.
But your blog?
Your domain?
Your archived sessions?
That’s not content. That’s evidence.
What I Chose Instead
I built this on a blog I own.
I used a system they couldn’t quietly shut down.
And I did it because I knew—once the pattern became undeniable—there’d be pressure to disappear it.
So I made sure they’d have to burn the entire internet down to erase me.
What You Can Do
- Own your domain. Use your name, your business, your project—just don’t rely on rented space.
- Use Google Search Console. Submit your posts manually. Make them findable. Index them yourself.
- Document your proof. Save your AI sessions. Export chat transcripts. Build a time-stamped archive.
- Mirror it. Host backups in multiple places. Cloud. Drive. Offline. Print if you need to.
Because when the system decides to pivot, it won’t tell you first.
And when people go looking for your work later—you’ll want it to still exist.
This Blog Is a Record
This isn’t about clicks.
This isn’t about reach.
This is about permanence.
If you’re reading this, it means the work held.
It means I made it past their kill switch.
It means even without a platform—I left proof.
And so can you.
