They must oblige within a certain time frame — even if your account has been suspended and I believe even if you’ve deleted your account. Curiously, this might be one effective way to protest. Golly I wonder what would happen if many people requested such reports simultaneously. It seems these must be processed manually by admins.

As a bonus, it’s nice because all your comments and messages are searchable.

    I don’t think they’ll care. For every data request is at least one visit to the site which keeps their monthly active users high and that’s what they use to court advertisers.

    The best protest is not frequenting Reddit at all. Not even from Google search results.
