If they want to adhere to EU laws I think they might have to, might still fuck over people from other places though.
The content is fine, but anything associated with them that can be deemed as identifiable needs to go if OP requests the right to be forgotten. Most services will just "censor" the username by replacing it with "deleted" or something. They don't have to get rid of everything else.
What if a comment itself includes some kind of personal data such as a link that explicitly ties the comment to a person?
Originally I didn't mind tying the comment to my identity, but once I decide to delete my account, I want all such ties gone. Case in point: links to open-source projects with my name in them.
"You shouldn't have posted it in the first place" is just victim blaming.
They will not restore EU comments without having to read those. It would violate GDPR and even a mistake or two will hurt their bottom line so so bad
California law isn't identical to EU law with regards to removing consumer data on request, but it's close enough that CA residents can also request reddit to take their posts down (and they have to adhere to that request). I think Virginia and Colorado have also passed some laws that might apply to this. Anecdotally it sounds like a lot of people have been having their posts go back up regardless, so I'd really love to see one of these states (or the EU) hold them accountable for refusing to remove user data.
