Oblitum/interception [portable] Jun 2026

The pattern is not about stopping data collection – it’s about disciplined, ephemeral collection. By intercepting data at the boundary and enforcing automatic oblivion, you can build systems that are both debuggable and compliant.

| Pitfall | Mitigation | |---------|-------------| | Over‑redaction breaks debugging | Use hash or tokenize instead of full redaction; keep correlations. | | Expired data needed for forensic analysis | Ship aggregated metrics before oblivion; store metadata without PII. | | Interceptor bypass (direct DB write) | Enforce interception at the driver level (e.g., SQL proxy). | | Clock skew in distributed expiry | Use monotonically increasing logical timestamps (e.g., HLC). | oblitum/interception
