11. A method comprising:
-
receiving, at a computing system, a request from an authorized user to delete a particular data file being continuously forwarded among memories of computing devices within the network, wherein a plurality of data files comprising the particular data file are stored in the network by continuously forwarding the plurality of data files among memories of the network computing devices without storing the plurality of data files on fixed storage mediums of the network computing devices; searching, by the computing device, a data structure including information associated with respective data files of the plurality of data files for information associated with the particular data file; determining, by the computing device, one or more memories storing the particular data file; and transmitting, by the computing device, instructions to the network computing devices associated with the determined one or more memories to discontinue forwarding of the particular data file. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)

27. A computing system comprising:
-
a processor configured to execute instructions; a computer readable medium storing instructions readable by the processor in order to cause the computing device to perform operations comprising; receiving a request from an authorized computing system coupled to a network to delete a data file being continuously forwarded among memories of computing devices within the network, wherein the network stores a plurality of data files by continuously forwarding the data files among memories of the network computing devices without storing the data files on a fixed storage medium of the computing devices; searching a data structure including information associated with respective data files being continuously forwarded among memories of the network computing devices for information associated with the particular data file; determining one or more memories storing the data file; and transmitting instructions to the network computing devices associated with the determined one or more memories to not forward the data file. - View Dependent Claims (28, 29, 30)
