    We sold it to a third party you'll never find that shares it back to us for free as part of the contract we have with them.

    So we don't have any of your data.

    So you pay because you have my data without any reasons and because you sold them.

    does anyone truly believe they respect those delete requests?

    Not the US-based companies, no. But occasionally they get some interesting fines when breaching GDPR, and that does seem to cause some adherence. I'm just happy to live in EU.
