      Go back and check your content. I’ve seen some post where people are claiming Reddit rolled back and their deleted or changed content has all been restored. If that’s true, it needs to be shouted from the rooftops.

        When you use a comment deleter app they cannot delete comments from subs marked private. (They’re hidden) So if you ran a deleter app in the last week while the subs were protesting a lot of your comments wouldn’t have been axed on the participating subs. Once the subs come back to normal from private mode, you’ll see those comments appear even though you thought you deleted everything. I’ve had over 200 comments come back from as far back as 11 years ago due to that.

        We should edit all our comments to “spez is a cuck” and then delete. So when they restore our deleted comments they’ll only get that.

          The EU has the GDPR and California has the CCPA that both give people in these places the legal right to have their data removed from sites upon request. If they end up putting your stuff back up or reverting edited comments/posts back to their original form, you can submit a notice through these organizations to bring the law into it and either make it illegal for Reddit to restore your stuff or at the very least force them to pour money into legal disputes to argue to keep it against government enforcement.

          Other states/areas may have similar internet privacy laws in place so check to see if this exists where you are!

        If you live in the EU, GDPR them. California (and maybe some other US states) have similar laws iirc.
