Reddit has not respected my right to delete my account and my posts and my comments (it is a zombie account with my history and my edits to posts also have been rolled back). As such, how do I make it of no value to Reddit?

My posts seem to be rolling back as the communities come back from being private or restricted. For example, I edited/deleted everything on Monday. This morning lots of comments.I had nuked were back, pre-edit. I nuked it all again a few hours ago, and noted the subs where the.comments were posted. Now there are a handful of revived posts, all from just one sub that wasn't in the crop I nuked earlier today. Curious, no?

So, I just keep running PowerDeleteSuite on them every few hours. Nothing that got deleted twice base come back yet, so maybe it's a data fidelity problem on the reddit end? Perhaps posts in locked subs were also lo led, and not actually deleted?

Just keep at it, and don't delete your account til you're sure everything is gone. I think were in this for the long haul.

I nuked my account - including deleting every comment - prior to the blackout, and it remains completely nuked. Not a single comment survived. But instead of using a tool, I hand-deleted every single comment. It did take a while, but every moment was deeply satisfying.
