They'll probably just use it anyway, unfortunately.
Now that we've given them the data, there's not much we can do.
If you're in the EU have a look at Art 15&17 GDPR. I'm so gonna have fun with them...
Waiting on them to fulfil my GDPR data request.
One I've got all my data (since there was some useful stuff there over the years) I'll follow up with the "right to be forgotten" request as well.
Keep us updated how this goes. Are they even governed by EU law if they are in the US?
There are some American news sites that don't serve to European users for that reason. Instead, we get a screan that explains that GDPR is too much for them to handle.
It can be circumvented with a VPN, but I haven't bothered so far
“But I think the greater Reddit community just wants to participate with their fellow community members.”
When despite widespread protests and even after overwhelmingly one-sided polls against your view you still don't see the discrepancy between what you think and what seems to be widespread opinion and concern.
As they point out it's beside the point anyway. People want to participate. But protest becomes a necessity and is deemed essential under these circumstances.
This man just does not know when to shut up.
He needs the money..
