Pretty sure that chats are auto disappearing in most apps. It's just how modern software works. Thanks to snap and frivolous lawsuits.

Which bridge? The one in Crimea? no thank you! I don't accept damaged bridges.

Are you a time traveler from the 1800s or are you just old? This is a really old metaphor dating back to pre WWI.

Google set the policy on its internal chat system and deliberately chose not to change it after being notified to keep documents and records due to a pending motion in 2019. Google didn't change the setting until this year.

Not really. They are actually deleted. If you mean ip logs. There isn't such a thing. People could have taken screenshots but they didn't.
