This is pissing me off to no end. I went on reddit and signed in out of habbit as I have a couple times already and before my account was gone and it wouldnt let me sign in.

Now I did it again and realized that my account actually was undeleted and allowed me to login AND all the posts that I overwrited and deleted with Power Delete Suite where back. I am so pissed right now.

    I tried to use power delete to download my stuff, but it always truncated data, I guess I was too much active on reddit lol, I also tried going one sub at a time but it was too much hassle, so I sent a GDPR request, much easier.

    Deleting now won’t work I think, reddit is monitoring very closely what people are doing, they’re trying to limit the damage as much as possible.

        Doesn’t make much difference with Reddit - I have seen plenty of people say that they have tried submitting GDPR requests and never received anything.

          One can only hope that reddit will be hit by a billion dollar fine from the EU lol

          Loved the place but it’s gone to shit and now they want to ubermonetize it. It was never run like a business and now they complain that it’s not making money like a business should. Fuck em

          Always check up with local data protection authorities, and if those dont properly handle your request either you can take legal action against either. As a citizen of the EU it is your right to do so.
