Will this question hang in cyberspace for eternity?

If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it actually make a sound?
If a question is asked in cyberspace and no one clicks the link to read it, does the question actually exist? Cyberspace unlike regular space is seemingly finite. So it will most likely hang in cyberspace until some param = null or some cycle ends.

There is no right answer. Cyberspace will come and pass, In terms of eternal, as long as it is in the mind of someone somewhere, it will live on and that is eternal.

There's no guarantee that cyberspace, itself, is "eternal." However, it is possible that the question alone (in any form) could "last" for as long as there is someone to keep that question "alive."

Eternity is out side of our normal time. Cyberspace does not exist for eternity, it exists for time, but only time is infinite. Just a theory.

Yes, the retrieval could be the only problem if at all.
