I might have to look more into my state’s right to be forgotten law. I used PDS for about 2 weeks until no more zombie posts were in my profile (most resurrected by the opening of closed subs). I was cleaning out some gaming book marks and clicked on a reddit thread I’d kept and, lo and behold, I found myself in the comments. Except I’d purged all of those. And searching for myself yields no results. This is…disappointing.

      Yeah, it’s stupidly euphemistic. I’m not sure if that language is used just to distinguish it as a sitewide action by the admins (as opposed to a single-subreddit “ban” from that sub’s mods), or if there’s some more calculated/nefarious reason for it (maybe being “banned” from an account has legal implications that being “suspended” doesn’t?).
