    Again IANAL (and am not privvy to details here) but just from an operational compliance perspective: anonymization is indeed a process that’s valid, but has rules, best practices, precedent, and so forth. It’s routinely applied to datasets with public-facing content but it’s not some kind of trick for evading individual deletion requests from users who have identified themselves and are already publicly associated with their content in close-knit communities (if verifiable anonymization is even feasible in such a case, which I doubt).

    My advice would be to make a list of your content and politely send with the template to the instance admin (not the mods). I’m sure they’ll just delete. Seriously, no content is worth the headache.

    It seems they’re implying they needn’t worry you’d lodge a complaint with your DPA for an apparent GDPR article 17 violation since your content was effectively “anonymized.”

    IANAL but that sounds like a theory that is easily tested.








  • I enjoy putting arguments/realizations like these on the mantle as trophies for every time I’ve been wrong.

    Sometimes I’m asked about this embarrassment of riches. How come I have so many?

    They don’t know I have more upstairs. What they see down here are just my favs, the real whoppers.

    Anyway my go-to response of course is “why how many do most people have” then offer to freshen their drink.

    Their genetics have sacrificed nearly every aspect of basic resiliency for maximum speed on the plains. Most of the work caring for horses is keeping them from accidentally killing themselves. Full disclosure: I worked as a stable hand as a child in exchange for riding lessons. Will never ever own a horse.
