Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!

Technically, unless that data is encrypted with only the end user having access to the key or is being held/mediated by a third party, they do have access. It's only company policy that's preventing access, and a court can shred that policy with a court order on a case by case basis. Same goes for the third party. The end user has to be the only one with the key.
