Hmm, does that violate GDPR? (Assuming a user is European and the law is actually enforced)

- scrollaway 5y agoYes it does. You don’t necessarily have a right to the other side of the conversation, but your messages are your own data and you have a right to export them. That said, gdpr is untested in the context of data being deleted before it can be retrieved.
- spoonjim 5y agoSounds like a Quill customer should get their evidence in place because soon they'll be able to sue Twitter instead of Quill.
- jimkleiber 5y agoYea, I think GDPR is a bit of "national government trying to govern international commerce" and not doing it very well, yet it's still at least there in theory. Thanks for clarifying that for me.
- Macha 5y agoIs it? The intent is to give the user access to data the company holds on them - it's not to make companies retain data indefinitely.
- jimkleiber 5y agoOh I was thinking more about the inability to export, or related to the data portability aspect, but I also don't have a very deep understanding of GDPR.
