Update: As some have pointed out: the restores can be rollbacks from the server issues or post haven’t been properly deleted due to subs being private during blackouts. Many have experienced the same issue, I can’t explain how this happens. I’ll just run the script again, try the GDPR request and delete my account.
Also worth noting: according to the ToS Reddit can actually do whatever they want with existing content, apparently we agreed to this when signing up.
IANAL but wouldn’t this be on par with creating a contract or NDA with illegal elements? Wherein the contract/NDA are no longer considered valid/become void as a result. Obviously this wouldn’t apply to the US and several other countries, and Reddit also has lawyers. Realistically I’m also just some dingus so someone smarter may know
It’s probably the case that the rest of the ToS applies except for that one specific element, which is severable. This what I’ve usually read in contracts (IANAL either but I used to work in a business that required a lot of proofing of contracts).
