As an EU citizen, I'm using my right to deletion to get to remove my data for me.

Here is the link to the form: https://policies.stackoverflow.co/data-request/

I requested a copy of my data for my personal backup and to confirm if they fulfilled my request.

Edit: As people noted in the replies, this will probably not remove your questions or answers, but only your profile. I'm going to edit with my result once they have fulfilled my request.

    : "In the EU, the GDPR requires that information about individuals is accurate and that they have full access to the information stored, as well as information about the source. Surprisingly, however, OpenAI openly admits that it is unable to correct incorrect information on ChatGPT. Furthermore, the company cannot say where the data comes from or what data ChatGPT stores about individual people. The company is well aware of this problem, but doesn’t seem to care. Instead, OpenAI simply argues that “factual accuracy in large language models remains an area of active research”. Therefore, noyb today filed a complaint against OpenAI with the Austrian DPA."

    'Non-discrimination law in Europe: a primer for non-lawyers'

    We have tried to write it in such a ways that non-lawyers can follow the text. We hope we succeeded a bit :)

    If you have suggestions to improve the paper, we would love to hear them!

    That's the fun thing of a pre-print: we can still amend things.

    It's 2024, the jurors won't be anonymous for long. Dulcé Sloan on The Daily Show said she would've found juror number 2 on Facebook in 5 seconds.

    "This reporter just put her entire LinkedIn page on the screen, & then was like, 'People in the media need to stop doing this.'
    The call is coming from inside the newsroom, girl! That's enough information to track down anybody."

    The court had over a year to prepare for this day. They failed.
    Is law enforcement prepared to protect jurors?

    @EU_Commission Well, the topic I disliked the most is your plan to compromise the online safety, security and privacy of all 450 million Europeans with the plans to scan their devices. In addition, you are not open and transparent enough about these plans, as most of those 450 million do not know you are working on this. You know it does not work and that is in violation with human rights, yet you keep pushing. Why?

    Real-world harms result from data misuse.

    We need an independent regulator to ensure strong protections and get redress when things go wrong.

    But the Data Protection and Digital Information Bill (UK) weakens the role of the Information Commissioner's Office. That’s why we've presented amendments.

    ORG’s amendment would:

    ✅ Limit the UK government’s powers to interfere with the Information Commissioner's Office through instructions and recommendations.

    ✅ Transfer budget responsibility and the appointment of non-executive members of the ICO to the relevant Select Committee, not government ministers.

    @lifeofguenter For a threads.net account to be followable from the Fediverse, several conditions have to be met at this time:

    1.) The account must be located in the USA, Canada or Japan. Perhaps more countries will be added soon, but for the time being not from the EU thanks to the .

    Actually I can't really bash for this (as much as I'd want to) because it seems like pretty much the rest of the has this problem of images not getting immediately removed from the server when you delete the image or even your account. I've tested with , , and (even Misskey somehow gets it wrong by not immediately making your image unavailable by the URL even if you've deleted it from your Drive, however this doesn't always happen, see below).

    Now I'm not sure about instance admin stuff (and I haven't tested with my admin hat on in this Misskey), but I'm guessing you don't have a view of all uploaded photos by a user that an admin can delete from in Mastodon and Pleroma either (please prove me wrong though!). ​:sagume_think:​ Misskey does let you view all files uploaded by a user and delete from there, though I'm not sure if the file gets immediately removed from the server once you hit delete, but it's probably gonna be like what I'm going to write below

    What I do know about Misskey is that, if you've never accessed the URL generated for the file in your Drive, and hit delete, the next time you access it, it definitely will no longer be available; a pure 404 as expected. However if you've accessed the URL at least once, then the file will get cached. I'm not sure if it's Misskey doing this or the reverse proxy (like ), because clearing cache or switching to a whole 'nother browser still shows the file is available.

    Oh, and have I mentioned that all three software will automatically put your image into the server the moment you hit the upload button, even if you haven't submitted the post yet? Yeah it's equally as easy as Lemmy to accidentally upload something to those three as well.

    What a mess. ​:seija_coffee:​

    Oh, and if you delete your account? It doesn't delete your uploaded photos. And good luck getting your instance admin to delete it; it requires a manual db query, api call, and — oh, none of this is documented? Welcome to my nightmare 💣🤯

    24/7 GPS monitoring of migrants enabled the UK Home Office to collect vast amounts of personal data, invading people’s privacy and inflicting psychological burdens.

    It’s a punitive and offensive measure that has rightly been found unlawful by the Information Commissioner’s Office.

    coffeeClean , to Reddit in Reddit sent me invitations to their IPO to my "deleted" accounts! That's a GDPR violation!

    The GDPR is a not a directive. It’s a regulation. Nontheless, I read that the GDPR was specifically mirrored into UK law with a couple minor modifications.

    But to answer @automaton, AFAIK the does not apply in this situation anyway because Reddit accounts are “anonymous”. The GDPR only protects identified people.
