-    Paranoia is a re-implementation of acts_as_paranoid for Rails 5, 6, and 7,
-    using much, much, much less code. You would use either plugin / gem if you
-    wished that when you called destroy on an Active Record object that it
-    didn't actually destroy it, but just "hid" the record. Paranoia does this
-    by setting a deleted_at field to the current time when you destroy a record,
-    and hides it by scoping all queries on your model to only include records
-    which do not have a deleted_at field.
