I made the script here to overwrite AND delete comments because this move was about unpredictability as gravity

It also has options to remove submissions, up/downvotes and subscriptions

I hope he just manually deleted it for the recording and then switched to a tool to do it automatically at least. lol

Reddit's a US company and GDPR is EU law. Why would an American company be expected to follow EU laws?

(Not a shill, just genuinely interested. It wouldn't occur to me as a Brit to demand Reddit comply with GDPR.)
