violation of the GDPR.
So all of your tweets (while being still associated with your email adress or handle), your friendlist, and such are still there? If so, that will be costly for Musk :D

Well - the information is not available publicly. But as the system still recognizes my email I can proof that at least that information as not been yet deleted. And I suspect that all of my data remains on Twitter's servers as of now.
There was a story how one guy recorded himself deleting each and every comment he made. The video was like 2-3 hours long. Manually one by one. Only to find that they restored his comments the next day.
How reddit hasn't been sued by the California attorney general I'll never know.
This is about Twitter though
What I was implying is that I don't know how useful the laws are if they aren't going to be enforced and if the penalty for breaking the law is a slap on the wrist.
For reddit you can use Redact, it can edit the comments for you, they don't seem to revert those changes.
That was an accident with restored backups though.
Hi, Never tried to delete my account there, but if you have a track of your discussion with them, I'm sure your DPA will be happy to hear your complain :)
Report it to your government. I know there are many regulators and politicians in both Europe and many US states who would love to have as much ammunition as they can get to go after Elon.
Why is their contact point another URL lol
You know it won’t matter, Musk isn’t complying with shit. The flippant way he moved the servers shows he has zero interest in anything but himself.
Godspeed.
"Deleted" my Facebook account 3 times in last couple years. I can still log in
I tried this as well, created a ticket and since then it's as if no ticket exists... if you manage something, please let me know. Or if you know where I can report them, I was not able to find anything (my google-fu is pretty weak)
Or you could just let it sit there, set it to private, maybe unfollow everyone, then access it once a month just to keep it live, and be an inactive lurker. He hates those.
