unable to Delete post in GitHub ansible community

hi team,

Due to personal reason i need to delete the post on github ansible community as per below URL please tell me process to delete it soon as am unable to perform any operation on post .

url: https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/43404

Posting this request over and over would not serve a purpose.
Your last post was on Friday, right before the weekend, and you probably wont get an answer before Monday next week.

That being said, this is actually a mailing list, so every post you make is sent to 11909 email addresses at the moment, and deleting it from Google Group would not delete it from the user mail box anyway.

Hullo there.

I suppose I could be wrong, but it doesn’t look to me as if there is anything in that post that is any kind of problem. If there’s some meaningful credential in there, just change it and move on…

The Internet is forever :slight_smile:

there are some host names in that post i need to delete it soon am unable to perform any operation on that post

It’s too late. The post has been there for days; your request here has ensured that many, many more people have had a good close look at the post, just as I now have. The horse has bolted and closing the stable door is pretty much impossible.

As the saying goes, “security through obscurity is no security”.

Concentrating on removing the post is a waste of time. Concentrate instead on mitigating the loss of the information. If that’s even really necessary, which I confess to being a bit doubtful about.

Here's another example of why locking issues and PRs is annoying.

(Some companies pay "security" folks to trawl the internet for "internal" information, and then take action against the person who "leaked" it. Been there, experienced that.)

Hopefully the auto locking can be reconsidered.

If security by obscurity[1] is your last defense, you already lost.
I'm truly are sorry if that is the case, you seriously need to evaluate you security model.

If you can get in touch with Marty Mc Fly, he might be able to loan you
the keys to the Delorian… then you can delete the post before it was
even created.

Hi all,

My current organization came to know about this post recently they want me to delete it ASAP due to organization regulatory, compliance issue. Can anyone help me out I don't want to drag this conversation as problem statement is simple and clear.

We are not unsympathetic but

a) any individual in this group who can help you will no doubt make contact

b) if no-one makes contact, it is because no-one in this group can help you

You have done what you can to meet this (IMHO foolish) demand from your organisation; they can expect no more from you.

And as I and others have pointed out, any damage is long since done. Removing that post is of no practical use.

Regards, K.
