I do not want to disentangle my name from my comments. I want to delete my comments. They are MY comments. I have a right to have them deleted.

- Zuiii 3y agoIf you're in the EU or are willing to stay in the EU for an extended time (>6 months?), then you may be able to compel them to delete the comments using EU laws. If they refuse, escalate and let the entirety of the EU take care of the rest. I get why hn is against deleting comments, and sure, make it really hard to delete comments if necessary, but you should honor the request of users who's unpaid contributions make your site what it is.
- kitanata 3y agoMaybe this is the start of a movement here to get us our own GDPR? You know what’s way more dangerous than me spamming this site with LLM hallucinations? Me walking into Congress with a fucking bill. How far do you want this to go HN? Delete my comments and then delete my account or maybe I start talking to Senators. It’s a nice site you have here. It would a shame to see your data go “poof”, wouldn’t it? You don’t delete my stuff? Maybe I just burn it all down in a nice fire led by Congress and a stroke of a pen. How would you like that? (Also thank you for the support Zuiii. You’re alright with me. :) )
