Dude, we were specifically discussing the GDPR, a subject that I have a lot of experience in through my career. You don't get to move the goalposts to Reddit's ToS and accuse me of supporting spez lmao. Get out of here.
Surely you have loads of experience, yet you lack reading capabilities. I suggest you re-read the information above and draw your own conclusions. I won't be discussing this any longer, as you must be clearly trolling or lacking in the reading department.
Read the title of the post bud
I was answering a comment regarding Reddit's ownership of our content and if we're allowed to delete it or not.
From OP:
I'm sure my comments are still well within topic here?
Lil bro tried to read a second time and still failed, please don't try again. 😭😭😭😭\
GDPR applies to all data that can be used to identify a living person (you). The Terms of Service are your contract with reddit, and intellectual property right in portions of your comments that are not personal data would apply to that. The privacy policy applies to everything, because it is the company's notice about what they do and don't do, and they must stick by that, or else they violate the FTC's rules on consumer fairness (among other things). Most companies would simply allow users control over their comments to ensure GDPR compliance, although technically reddit is not required by GDPR to delete or afford any rights related to personal data... UNLESS, they have specified so in their privacy notice and/or terms of service. There, that's my second comment ever in kbin. I'm personally very sick with Reddit's conduct. It's definitely enshitification. Either way, EU data protection authorities would take a very dim view of the willy-nillly way in which Reddit reinstated supposedly deleted comments even without considering the specific content. I suspect the FTC would not be real keen on it either.
