Both are in the fediverse, perhaps think of them as distant galaxies
Also not a lawyer but I've done a lot of GDPR training since it was introduced and I believe you're incorrect—the data subject posting it publicly or not doesn't factor into the validity of a deletion request under the GDPR. There are a limited set of specific reasons a service owner can refuse a deletion request and they're pretty much down to preventing abuse and facilitating compliance with other laws.
From your link
Any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person ('data subject'); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person[15]
The "directly or indirectly" part is important here, a username is a constant identifier between a user's posts and comments
Given comments and posts are free text input, there's no way of knowing the entire set of a user's content doesn't contain PII, unless an admin wants to spend the time combing through and determining which posts definitely contain PII and which definitely don't, they should delete it all. The data subject does not need to make specific listings of what they want deleted, the onus is on the service owner to be able to process the deletion request completely and within a timely manner.
Not an admin, but from a legal perspective, users in the EU have the right to request deletion of their data under the GDPR, which the consequences of violation are up to €10m or 2% of annual turnover (not profit), whichever is higher
Frankly, if a user asks a service owner to delete their personal data, the service owner should do it as promptly as possible.
Oh, but I'm sure I've had people telling me that protest and disruption just turns people against the cause
🙄
I'm actually speechless.
I hope this guy suffers until his end.
If you run over HUNDREDS with a BULLDOZER, you deserve permanent PTSD to prevent you from ever fucking thinking of doing anything remotely like it again
I don't think it would look the same, if it was a CMOS sensor, I think you'd see lots of bright white pixels
Given everything we're watching unfold, half of Americans are genuinely brainwashed fools.
No rational person of sound mind can support Trump unless they are in the tiny handful of people that will personally benefit from a Trump presidency. 99% of people will suffer, people that have any semblance of agency don't vote for that.
Was gonna say, I'm sat on 2.2k comments apparently in about 15 months, which is surprising to me given I probably only comment on about half the days in any given week.
I will say compared to Reddit though, I tend to be more likely to comment here because there're fewer people here and I want it to feel active enough for more people to continue joining (either lemmy in general, or just on smaller communities that don't have a lot of activity yet).
I can eat a cow, it would also be alarming to find in my attic
