GDPR request over some embarrassing information, perhaps? Facebook probably can't win here. Presumably they have a policy that compels deletion in some cases and they don't want to argue about individual cases
- bencollier49 8y agoI don't think dead people can make GDPR erasure requests. No idea about the legalities involved if an executor or heir tries it. My bet would be on a fake profile report.
- emerongi 8y agoThis happened over a year ago already, before GDPR was enforced.
- jlarocco 8y agoMaybe try reading the article? The person died in 2016 and the profile delete was 6 months later - long before GDPR took effect.
- ghostly_s 8y ago"Don't want to argue about individual cases" is a business model decision that companies like Facebook make. We need to stop accepting this as a reasonable position.
