I’m not sure if it’s a coincidence, but I raised a case with the ICO in the UK, and today they got back to me asking for all my communication with Reddit. Also today - after a month of silence - Reddit also emailed me with this
If you’re in the UK and had been affected by posts being restored, I’d recommend contacting the ICO. It takes less than 5 minutes
Thanks for reminding me to delete my account & all its posts
Keep your account for a while after deleting
heck I can't even get my data to begin with. When it did not show they sent me bakc an email saying it would take up to 30 days. today I emailed back that it has been well over 30 days.
So like they are clearly full of shit. How do you fight something like this?
They also claim that API changes is reasonable; they also claim that IPO is a great idea
So those things only matter as search engine discoverability right? Doesn't Google cache and keep them for pretty long though, so does it matter if user deletes their old content?
They've lied plenty of times before, why believe them now?
