As for the point you raised; the account removal does not cause removal of quoted or referred postings but that is also OK by GDPR; The article 17 "right of erasure" has restriction clause in article 23 (i) which states that it can be mitigated if it is necessary for "the protection of the data subject or the rights and freedoms of others"

Hence protecting the freedom of speech of other users has priority here.

Its was just an example. But great answer. So many other laws organisations can hide behind so it will be useless in court. But at least privacy get sime visibility.

For small companies with only a handful of employees, I'm sure they're just playing it safe, but for larger companies it's definitely more of a "Hey guys, look at us, we're following the law, how cool is that! By the way, we've already got all of your data and sold it to everyone anyway."

Last year, when intra-EU roaming costs were abolished, I got several messages from my provider saying "As of [date of new legislation], all of our most esteemed customers will enjoy zero roaming costs inside the EU!" and made it look as if it were an exclusive offer for their customers. At least this time around they mentioned that it's actually a new series of laws they have to comply with.

Not everyone. About 2/3 of my GDPR emails did not mention GDPR.

Heh, then it is just a marketing opportunity for them. And a clickbait invite to accept whatever they have written into waivers.

But as it happens, a Law is a Law and must be obeyed, it is pointless to send messages to people and say "hey, see, we are obeying laws here"
