Cant you just send reddit an email and tell yoi want eveything they have about you deleted? Or is that just eu gdpr thing
Can for California too
I'm not sure if just deleting/GDPR an account is enough to get all of their comments removed.
It's supposed to.
A collection of personal opinions are enough to create a personal profile, and are thus protected by GDPR for EU citizens who can withdraw consent for them to be used.
It is also not actually legal for them to change the usage of your protected data before informing you in a clear and concise language, but that part hasn't been thoroughly litigated yet.
Yep, yet discord doesn't delete messages nor does reddit with comments, they just "anonymise" it, US companies just doesn't care. Those dumbasses
Irreversibly anonymizing data would no longer make it personal data according to the current GDPR regulations
Pictures, metadata from picture, the way you write and more is personnal tho.. and can be and will be identified
