Drive we are so privacy focused here. What is to prevent myself or anybody out there, from starting to report individual instances of GDPR and CCPA.

No lemmy insurances are complying with national privacy laws and nobody is talking about it at all.

    If a screen name is an identifier doesn’t that make literally every social website or forum a potential breach? That seems a bit harsh

      Not if they are compliant and handle the data correctly, but yes it is a minefield and pretty strict with potential huge fines for non compliance and breaches! I would not want to be in charge of trying to get it all straight for Lemmy!

      Non-federated services keep data on their servers or share it with well-defined set of partners. This can be be done in accordance to GDPR. In fediverse that data is broadcasted to anybody who wants to listen (this make the network open). That is a big difference.
