    Why is noone talking about GDPR data deletion request and copyright striking them into oblivion?

    Last I checked noone gave them permission to grab any of our data, much less profit off it. Let them pay fines to the grave.

      By that logic though all of Fediverse is illegal and should be shut down. There is significant work to be done there, not just by Facebook but by the Fediverse community on the whole.

        It is absolutely not illegal. But it is subject to GDPR, so I could send a deletion request to the admin of an instance, and they would have to delete my content on their instance.

        The Fediverse doesn’t require that anyone provide any personal information, though. Literally none. It’s the user’s responsibility to choose not to post any.
