Will try to see discussion on Slack, thank you. We can chat about it here too, why not.
@Robin W, our analogy with newspapers and similar commercial services is a bit wrong, I think anyway. No law can force them to delete everything in their database(s), simply because they need those data to pay VAT, to pay to state what they had in income. They are exceptions, and has to be. Amazon will never be forced by this law to delete your profile. On the other side Twitter, Facebook will be forced by this law a lot, that is why I mentioned them.
As I get it, it is like this:
– Robin W asks for this law to be respected here on this domain “bbpress.org”, and all (identifiable) personal info about him to be deleted.
– After this is done, can Admin of this domain, webmaster, owner, or I as Stagger Lee find anything, anything on this domain, to threaten Robin W, find his physical post address, kill him, threaten his family, etc…etc…
colourful example, but I believe it is it.
