There's no independent audit for GDPR compliance so the only way to know would be if someone whistleblows. There are also so many loopholes that allows to keep the data like "to prevent further abuse" or "some legal reason".

So if reddit bans your account they can keep all data and you can't do anything about it even with GDPR.

Don't GDPR deletion requests only require deleting personal data, and not public posts?

Are you advising breaking the law just because nobody checks?

[-] drmoose@lemmy.world 5 points 5 days ago

I'm saying corporations break the law if nobody checks - why wouldn't they?

[-] ranzispa@mander.xyz 1 points 5 days ago

That happens. Still, many companies do not. Some companies are unaware of the legislation.

I was informing one worker of a company of one such law.

Many companies do not break the law even though there are no controls just because that is the right thing to do.
