Drive we are so privacy focused here. What is to prevent myself or anybody out there, from starting to report individual instances of GDPR and CCPA.

No lemmy insurances are complying with national privacy laws and nobody is talking about it at all.

I mean... It's pretty explicit in gdpr that the "transfer to non-eu servers" part means you can't send it via federation in the first place to non-eu servers unless those servers also adhere to gdpr: https://commission.europa.eu/law/law-topic/data-protection/reform/rules-business-and-organisations/obligations/what-rules-apply-if-my-organisation-transfers-data-outside-eu_en

The answer is that currently federation and Lemmys use of it are not gdpr compliant and the first gdpr case against any Lemmy instance in the eu will force that instance to defederate from all non-eu servers.
