meanwhile at the fuck off department, as a reply to “delete everything”
Is that even GDPR compliant?
it is not. we exchanged 7 emails and they basically laughed at my face.
With accounts that are less data-miney, you can replace all your account details (name, email addy, region, etc.) with gibberish and wait for it all to update, and then replace your password so not even you can get into it.
If it’s more data-miney and you are willing to put in a few months / years of maintenance, you can trickle in the gibberish and false data until it’s thoroughly poisoned.
It’s easier to pretend your datas were deleted than collecting part of your datas and sending them back to you. They almost every time don’t know how much, where, why they have so much datas. They certainly have no way to collect them, only hand made work, so let’s have a little misunderstanding and hope it works.
Now that you’ve been deleted, wait until you receive the next text or email marketing campaign ;)

data is already a plural word friend! “datas” is confusing to read
Is data a plural word? I thought it was a word without plural form
If data is plural, does that mean that “the data was stolen” is wrong and “the data were stolen” is right?
it’s like a special category of words idk, grammar theory is my weakest point
data can be one point of data, and data can be many points of data
“datum” is the singular, but you’re right that it’s not really grammatically plural since you’d say “the data was stolen” not “the data were stolen”. I think the latter would technically also be valid; my interpretation would be that the latter is “countable” plural, so there are specific discrete datums that were stolen.
What am I supposed to do with those informations?
Write them on sheets of papers
And then invoke GDPR, ask for a printed copy
Start using datum for singular…which is even weirder than datas imo.
Noted, not native english here ;)
yeah don’t worry, i’m not either, everyone learns at some point! :)
It’s easy to delete an account in X, simply post Musks flight plans, porno in Meta and spam in others. Account deleted in minutes.
I keep a bunch of cp images on my computer to do the trick /s
But can you trust them that you data is really gone?
‘malicious misunderstanding’ bet
