Make sure the press hears about this. We’re still ranting about spez editing comments years after the fact; not only disobeying a user’s wishes, but violating the law?. That’s a whole other kettle of fish.
You could try editing all the posts/comments instead - even possibly doing it a few times. I doubt whatever intern they got to start undeleting user data is going to be very thorough and won’t look through several edits
GDPR protects personal information like age, name, nationality, face or likness. Sadly it dosent protects content as far as I know. However if I’m mistaken I’m open to be corrected
There are reports of them already restoring deleted content, too. They have zero respect for their users’ autonomy.
Just checked my account and all of my posts and comments are back. :[
No way. Can anyone else confirm of their old user data is back? This is a huge low by Reddit
I think this is also, like, illegal? At least I the EU

Not sure if it’s what happened, but remember that content in private subreddits isn’t on your profile and thus cannot be deleted.
When it opens back up, your content will now appear on your profile. (Run it again as-needed)
@fear @dope @generalEdo Are they even allowed to do that with the GDPR protecting EU citizens? :think:
