It does remove them sooner or later.... The spec'd removal is 7 days, but I've seen it go longer almost double at times.  Slow house-cleaning.

But its a bonus for anyone that deletes something and wants it back ( or if on a vacation for more than 7 days on the free service cause you'll get more than 14 days to retrieve vids )

I believe it is better to find out a solution to empty recycle bin as soon as possible even 7 days due to many reasons they are important to me but may be not important to you.
Again I would like to thank you for the bonus of older than 7 days which sometime positive.
