A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.
Some Rules
- Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn't great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post
- Don't promote proprietary software
- Try to keep things on topic
- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience
- Be nice :)

MODERATORS
Yes, all content possible, before deleting my account.
You didn't delete anything. You told reddit to delete stuff, but whether they actually did that is a different question. It isn't public on their website anymore, but the data might still be lying around on their servers
Yea they keep all the data. I deleted everything on my account when the whole shitshow happened and then GDPR requested the data associated with the account and it was all still there. And when I requested that they delete that too they outright refused.
i would love to see the answer from reddit because that sounds extremely illegal. keeping the data alone is already a violation.
If you're in the EU, I hope you have documentation of that. Could prove useful.
Can you post a short version of what you sent them for inspiration?
That sounds like a gdpr violation. Companies can keep some things under the gdpr even when asked to delete them but i doubt your comments or whatever fall into that category.
