minus-squareroadkill@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up0arrow-down5·2 years agoI personally experienced this myself yesterday and mentioned it in the Reddark discord… I hit reload on my profile (which had been wiped clean save 3 protest comments) and saw that Reddit restored comments I had deleted. What was egregious about this, however… The deleted comments were deleted over 3 weeks ago, well before any planned Reddit blackout. Nothing you edit or delete from Reddit will disappear folks. They will continue to sell it long after you delete your account. And yes, this is in violation of CCPA and GDPR.
