Don’t know if it is expensive for reddit but the link works at the time of this posting.

    Pretty sure the last line of image is not correct anyway: AFAIK doing this doesn’t wipe your data; it requests Reddit to compile a report on all the data they have on you. It does still waste time of the employees, which spez/Reddit ultimately have to pay for… But doesn’t do fuckall for removing data unfortunately. At least that was the impression I got from reading their page on it and googling.

    Would love if it did… I already deleted all my comments and posts (the hard way… over the course of many bathroom breaks) but I still don’t like them having ip logs and browsing history which I can guarantee you that they keep. And AFAIK they are under no legal obligation to delete that kind of data, especially for users in the US, but I think even for Europe, ip address/email/browsing history/screen name would not be considered as personal identifying information (pii) in most cases and probably no way to force them to get rid of it, unless you’re some kind of 1337 h4x0r dude.
