fbievan comments on Reddit violates CCPA

submitted 3 years ago by fbievan@fedia.io to c/RedditMigration@kbin.social

This video shows that Reddit refused to delete all comments and posts of its users when they close their account via a CCPA / GDPR request.

This is absolutely insane, and shows that companies OWN you.

The difference is that Musk doesn't have the knowledge and skill to do it.

I personally doubt that.

Musk might not have his own personal knowledge. But this is violating a law in California in which the person in this video seems to in California.

Plus reddit seems to based in California.

This goes behind being a scumbag, and into the territory of ignoring the CCPA.

This is magnitudes worse than simply being a greedy capitalist.
