I would hope that someone reaching out to press from ModCoord would pass these concerns on to journalists. A persistent journalist can uncover the extent of compliance to the GDPR and CCPA through proper questions. “Have you seen an increase in GDPR/CCPA requests wince the controversy started? What percent of those have you completed? What about reports that users are unable to delete their data?” etc. (only better because I’m not a journalist and probably oversimplifying).
Reddit stopped answering requests for comment from objective journalists.
People just need to start filling complains with their Data Protection Authority. Then the mainstream media will be forced to cover the stories to get the clicks.
