curl -X DELETE http://localhost:8080/api/pastes/{id}
# soft delete (requires the deletion token from the create response)
curl -X DELETE -H "Authorization: Bearer TOKEN" http://localhost:8080/api/pastes/{id}
# ...or via query param; the creator browser (viewer cookie) may also delete without a token
