recollecting from memory: Early in the war, russian news reported they busted a nazi hideout in the occupied donbass region. The report was accompanied by a picture of swastika flags, nazi tshirts, 3 copies of the "Sims 3" game and a document signed with "Illegible". All layed out neatly on a bed.

Apparently, the instructions for staging the photo was to include Nazi paraphenalia, 3 SIM Cards and a document with an illegible signature. And someone didn't read the instructions properly (or took them too literal), and instead used 3 copies of Sims 3, as well as a document signed with the name "illegible"

So, a small anecdote from me, although from within the German Bundeswehr:

Back when I left school, Germany still had a mandatory 9 month military service (you could refuse military service in exchange for a civil service). The first three months were basic training and fairly strict, in that we had to salute higher ranking personell when we were in uniform. Our group had the luck of getting a private as a substitute group leader, someone who just finished their first 3 months. Since we were technically the same rank, we didn't have to salute the first three months.

After our three months, everyone was transfered to different barracks, I was transfered to a military airport, specifically a helicopter sqaudron. So when I entered the hangars, I came across the first officer and saluted them, according to military conduct. They saluted back but immediately followed up, asking me to never do that again.

Air force pilots and their crew are almost exclusively officers and up, so when I was in the barracks, I would have to constantly salute, and they would have to salute back, and no one wanted that. So we were told not to salute, a friendly "good morning/day" would be enough.

There was only one person in the entire barracks that we were supposed to salute, and that was the barracks' commander. Who, at their first visit to our squadron, told our squadron leader beforehand to have us not to salute him, either, so we didn't.

Tl;dr: In my entire 9 months of military service, I only saluted once and was immediately told to never do that again.

Fair point, I guess my issue is trust.

The GDPR data I received from reddit revealed to me that the comments I edited and deleted have not actually been deleted from the database, just edited.

EDIT: Furthermore, I am "worried" that all reddit would need to do to be compliant to my GDPR delete request, was to remove my association with the comments, i.e. leaving the comments up but disasociating it with my account by changing the poster name to [deleted]. It seems to me, that in order to be GDPR compliant, reddit only needs to allow me to delete my content myself, which they do - but manually editing and deleting 4000 comments is not a job I want to do.

Hello everyone.

With the API changes, I, too, was planing to delete my reddit account. I am still intending on doing so, but I wanted to purge all my content (mostly comments, some even helpful) from that site, before i finally pull the plug on my account.

I used PowerDeleteSuite to edit and delete all my comments, and it successfully edited and deleted about 2000 comments I made.

Visiting my reddit profile (either logged in or from an incognito browser tab, old reddit as well as new) shows that I don't have any comments or posts.

However, I decided to have reddit provide me with all my stored data, as per the GDPR. This data reveals that I made about 6000 comments over the years, and about 2000 of those comments reflect the edits I made using PDS. But the remaining 4000 comments are still unedited and can be reached via the url in the GDPR spreadsheet.

Is there a tool that allows mass editing all my comments based on a spreadsheet containing URLs to the comments, as tools like PDS are unable to find the remaining ~4000 comments?
