I have been increasingly having to re-run my purge scripts across multiple accounts, despite not being on reddit for a few weeks now. The longer i wait between logging in and purging comments, the more appear.

And they do appear quasi-random, as if they page/comments get restored when another user pulls/visits an older page.

How does this even square with privacy regulations anyhow. If a user wants to delete their comments, forcibly restoring them against their will is, at best, unseemly.

    To fellow European users that want to delete their Reddit accounts, you have the right to be forgotten online. That is Reddit needs to delete all your data after you request it properly. I’m not sure what’s Reddit protocol for this, but you can sue them if they don’t comply
