Update: As some have pointed out: the restores can be rollbacks from the server issues or post haven’t been properly deleted due to subs being private during blackouts. Many have experienced the same issue, I can’t explain how this happens. I’ll just run the script again, try the GDPR request and delete my account.
Also worth noting: according to the ToS Reddit can actually do whatever they want with existing content, apparently we agreed to this when signing up.
Wow, out of everything that’s happened involving Reddit over the past few weeks, this to me is the most damning and deserves the most attention.
I’m really curious to see how they try to spin this in the next PR piece and what the reactions will be.
