I know you changed the button based on sentences you copied from my posts. And I have also proven that your backend keeps the data even after emptying the trash, which means you are illegally retaining user data.
Google AI Studio’s “Delete” Button Is Not Real Deletion — This Is Illegal Data Retention in the EU
I have proven that Google AI Studio does not delete user data, even when the interface claims it does. This is not a UI bug. This is undisclosed backend behavior and illegal data retention under EU law. When you press Delete, Google only removes the local JSON file from the client side. The server-side session, context, and conversation data remain fully intact. Even after emptying the trash, the backend still keeps everything. When you restore the JSON, the chat continues from the exact same internal state, which is only possible if the server never deleted anything. This is the equivalent of saying: I have a key and a house. The house disappears, but I can still walk through the door. If the data had truly been deleted, the model would not be able to continue the conversation. But it does, which proves the backend never removed the data. Under GDPR, the right to erasure, data minimization, purpose limitation, lawful basis, and transparency are all violated. Google claims the data is deleted, secretly retains it, and continues to process it. This is not a misunderstanding. This is not a UI issue. This is undisclosed internal behavior and unlawful data retention. I proved it with a simple logical test that anyone can reproduce.

I prove the authenticity of the video by saving the long screenshot from the Google My Activity page, the PDF‑exported screenshot, and the full HTML archive into both my Google Drive and the Internet Archive. These files can be compared with the events shown in the video down to the exact minute. Google My Activity logs confirm every browser action, and the saved files are fully synchronized with the video in both timing and content.
