@[email protected] that's funny. I wonder how they're going to differentiate between EU citizens that are protected by GDPR. just because they posted in the US doesn't mean they're exempt from EU protections.

also, if reddit even attempts to share that information and EU courts find out both reddit and the studios will be in the hottest pot of water they've ever been in.
