Reddit is restoring deleted posts and comments (kbin.social)

A few days ago I deleted all of my posts and comments from reddit, but today they somehow reappeared.

I don't know if that's a bug or the admins themselves are restoring content, but I'm sure they'd have incentives to do so considering that they make money from your content, whether that is from generated clicks to the website or from selling those data to other companies to train AI models.

They have the right to delete data that's about them. Perhaps Reddit will make the case that the contents of their comments aren't that, and once an account has been deleted so that those comments are no longer associated with a username then the identifiable personal information has been removed.

Assuming this isn't just crappy caching issues.
