That's just what I was trying to ask earlier ...

My thoughts:

The author might choose from specifying the kamikaze-time
a) absolutely (date+time)
or
b) relatively (counting from the retrieval time), e.g. destruction after 1 hour.

This information should be provided by the metadata of the keys. The problem 
will be keys without metadata.

It must also be decided if kamikaze is done even if there is still free space 
left in the data store.

Anyway I'd like that only audio/video streaming content does hara-kiri and not 
the "normal freesites content". But I think there would be no secure way to 
distinguish them.

How about not to delete the keys from the datastore but to move them to another 
place so that the user can re-integrate it to the store if he wishes to? (E.g. 
to re-access a freesite that killed itself.)
