I assure you nothing Square is doing is illegal or even "possibly illegal". Square takes GDPR deletion and right to be forgotten incredibly seriously. But you must understand that soft-deleting an image that the user uploaded is not in violation of any regulation in place in the USA.

"I'm trying to inform folks about data deletion works." Is hard to reconcile with this comment. Whether data is an image or some other record is immaterial. If the user (or the controller, for that matter) tells you to delete their data you delete it. Full stop. That's the right thing to do and in many places now a reason to get fined if you don't. Whether your company is based in the USA or not is immaterial. You also responded to an inquiry of Facebook employees as though you were one, when in fact you work somewhere else entirely. I think you mean well but possibly do not understand the implications of your statements here.
