So section 230 protects social media platforms regarding content users post.
If they reinstate a user deleted post who owns it?
Hoping this blows up in their faces as it's a really shitty course of action to take.
I also don't think GDPR looks to kindly at this.
It really doesn't. Right to be forgotten from the Irish Data Protection Commission.
The real PowerDeleteSuite is always in the comments.
Legally, they are probably fine. They’ll delete your account and disassociate your comments from it if you ask and that likely has them covered.
your post is your IP and you own the rights to it and the right to have them deleted.
