   PSA: If an American corporation says they are not able to delete your data for legal reasons and offer to “close” your account instead, tell them you’ll file a GDPR complaint against their EU-based subsidiary.
   I got a deletion confirmation and an apology within 10 minutes. 🇪🇺

     @TimWardCam If you can find any company in EU or USA which doesn't delete all the user data within 12 months upon delete request, contact either a privacy adminstration in any country or EU directly and the company will pay you + court orders fines.

     EU is bad for most things, but GPDR actually works in black and white manner.

     @frankrausch Bet they haven't though. Nobody is *ever* going to go through all the backup tapes with a pair of scissors and snip out your information, for example.
