I might have to look more into my state’s right to be forgotten law. I used PDS for about 2 weeks until no more zombie posts were in my profile (most resurrected by the opening of closed subs). I was cleaning out some gaming book marks and clicked on a reddit thread I’d kept and, lo and behold, I found myself in the comments. Except I’d purged all of those. And searching for myself yields no results. This is…disappointing.
Does it work on permanently suspended accounts?
(The reason for was for “mod abuse” for reporting too much misinformation in a right-wing safe space subreddit, in case anybody was wondering.)
Is it just me or is “permanently suspended” an oxymoron?
Yeah, it’s stupidly euphemistic. I’m not sure if that language is used just to distinguish it as a sitewide action by the admins (as opposed to a single-subreddit “ban” from that sub’s mods), or if there’s some more calculated/nefarious reason for it (maybe being “banned” from an account has legal implications that being “suspended” doesn’t?).

So being banned means you forfeit control of your data? 🤔

A user agreement does not supercede federal law…

You can’t have it both ways. What you’re saying is that a user agreement supercedes federal law (GDPR), and then turning around saying it doesn’t. Which one is it?

You said if your account was “suspended” (banned) that you no longer have access to your GDPR info, because of the user agreement.
You forgot the important one.
