👿 PSA: #Reddit is restoring deleted and overwritten posts to save what they consider "their data". This is a new low and probably illegal at least in Europe. You can send a GDPR or CPRA request here: https://www.reddit.com/settings/data-request
These are screenshots of my profile on June 14th before and after overwriting and then deleting all my posts with Powerdelete. Today, June 16th all my posts have been restored by Reddit without my knowledge or consent.

I had purged an account of mine a few years ago. And I went to go look and comments and posts from 7 years ago were undeleted. that’s absolutely insane.
I wonder what’s going on. Are they trying to restore closed subreddits, some disgruntled employee doing something in protest and somebody else trying to fix it, new replacement mods not knowing what they’re doing. We’ll probably never find out I guess.
Interesting. I haven’t done any account-purging, but I know that at several points over the years I’ve made comments and then immediately realized that I’d duplicated something said further down the thread or had just plain made a mistake and removed the comment I’d made. I wonder if all those are silently popping back into existence now.
