And do you need to be either a California or EU resident for CCPA or GDPR regs to even be relevant to you? Because that's not most people.

I'm from California, and all I can say about it is that if I delete a comment from reddit, it can't be recovered by the "view deleted post" feature. Of course, anyone that scrapes data while the comment is public will have a copy. I would bet money there are multiple legally subcontracted subsidiaries within reddit that are "scraping" copies of everything. In the US there are tons of legal loopholes for junk like this.
