I think that‘s great and hope my country will clear the way to build more nuclear power plants too

Sure, the radioactive waste is not great, but renewable energy sources are too unstable to provide the baseline of power consumption

Nuclear could provide that base power. Renewable sources in combination with pumped-storage hydroelectric facilities (or other ways to store power) would then be able to cover the fluctuations in demand

Eventually we hopefully figure out how to generate power using fusion, but for now I don‘t think we have other good options

As @hamid said: An agreement exists between the US and the EU granting any citizen the right to go to court to defend their rights to their data

There‘s a summary as well as links to the actual agreements here

Here‘s a link where someone copied the post to kbin. There‘s also a link to reddit

Imagine contacting a company as a journalist for comment and getting a poop emoji as a response

Twitter is almost as big of a shitshow as Reddit is

I probably wouldn‘t remove the account itself
Otherwise you can‘t remove them again when they get restored by the admins

I think if that works it would be a great solution! Processing copyright claims is pretty time-consuming, so they‘d have to put a lot of work into it

But the Reddit ToS states that by submitting content to their Services you

grant [Reddit] a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, transferable, and sublicensable license to use, copy, modify, adapt, prepare derivative works of, distribute, store, perform, and display Your Content

You‘re right, you can use the GDPR to delete personal data. But again, I don‘t think posts and comment are considered personal data and that they would not have to be removed since they are essential to understanding the discussion as a whole

The GDPR was never intended to be able to destroy information, just to protect the privacy of users. So as long as there‘s no information that could identify a user in their posts/comments (which no one should make publicly available anyways) then Reddit is under no obligation to delete the content you generated. They only have to disassociate it from your account, which they do by displaying the username as „deleted“

I think you should definitely try, but I don’t think it’ll work. According to this stackexchange question they could argue that deleting your comments would break the cohesiveness of the discussion and make the available information incomplete.

Art.17, 3a states that the right to be forgotten is not applicable if processing of the data is required to exercise freedom of information. So I don’t think posts or comments are affected by the GDPR as long as they don’t contain any information that would identify a user
