Before you do that. Anyone ever done a GDPR request and seen what type of data is provided? Is it just comments and posts or some more extra user identifying details like ip addresses used and outbound clicks and so on?
I heard on discord that apparently reddit has like 1 guy handling all the GDPR requests and that they are swamped right now. If it’s true it might be a while. I also heard on r/privacy that reddit was putting old deleted posts back online, so deleting your account isn’t a very reliable option it seems.

I’m in the process of doing that right now, it’s been a few days since I asked for the data request, they’re yet to get back to me.
Edit: almost 2 weeks later and nothing! Edit numero dos: July 3rd, finally received my data.

That seems like a massive GDPR violation of its true. I’m sure there are some class action lawyers out there who’s love to know if this is true…

I wasn’t referring to the lack of response. But undeleting posts by a user who deleted their account seems like a data retention violation.
mygod what a shitshow
