I read the whole thing and all I came away with is that basically no one has a fucking clue if it applies, if it does apply technically does it even matter, and if it does matter how it’s supposed to work without fucking up the site.
Yay GDPR!
- x0x0 9y agoMost of the deletion requirement for a user could probably be satisfied by removing the username from the posts. And not just for display, but in the db. If the data can't be recalled for a user, then (by my reading) that clears the GDPR requirement.
- mattmanser 9y agoComments have personally identifiable information in too, it really doesn't sound like it's enough.
- x0x0 9y agohow many comments list their own name? Very very few. Other comments may refer to you but you have no gdpr privacy rights over that.
- throwaway4719 9y agoI assume you were being sarcastic, but in this aspect, I actually think the GDPR is great. At least for Europeans. (The fact that people will find a way of disagreeing about pretty much anything online is a whole other matter.)
- stagbeetle 9y ago> I read the whole thing and all I came away with is that basically no one has a fucking clue Careful! You may be onto something here.
