They must oblige within a certain time frame — even if your account has been suspended and I believe even if you’ve deleted your account. Curiously, this might be one effective way to protest. Golly I wonder what would happen if many people requested such reports simultaneously. It seems these must be processed manually by admins.
As a bonus, it’s nice because all your comments and messages are searchable.
Yeah the way the data is structured makes it looks like a straight dump from their databases that no doubt is automated.
The amount of data that they do provide in there is much more than I was expecting, compared to some other platforms I’ve seen that do the bare minimum by dumping some basic metadata for your account and that’s it.
Under GDPR they have to give you everything they have about you. Sure, they might skip some bits, but if it’s too obvious that you’re not giving everything, you open up yourself to some pretty big fines.
