Open source: Yes

The Right to Be Forgotten (rtbf.ir) project was launched in 2021 by Amir Shokri as an open source initiative inspired by JustDeleteMe. It is designed for users of Persian language platforms who want control over their digital footprint and the ability to permanently delete their accounts. Since its start, the project has built a public directory that shows how easy or difficult it is to delete accounts from various services, released browser extensions to inform users before signing up, and raised awareness through campaigns, blogs, and social media. Its impact has been both educational and practical, empowering users and pressuring platforms toward greater transparency. People can help by signing and sharing its petitions, contributing to the open source development on GitHub, updating or adding services to the directory, supporting it financially or morally, and spreading awareness through social networks.
