So here is a funny technical situation... we have a GDPR require to delete someone's identity. However, there's nothing identifiable in the account. We have zero idea who the person is. The GDPR requires that we have proof that the request is coming from the person in question and not just someone who guessed their password or whatever. But we don't know the name, country, gender, age, password, email, employer, or anything of the person in question. It's completely anonymous.
While there's no PI to take down, it's an interesting situation that there is no means of making the request for data that is already anonymous by the nature of it being anonymous.

Of course it also shows what an unreasonable request it would be, if it were real, to request that anonymous data be deleted only for the purpose of harming those that had taken the time to respond and assist in those posts in the past.

Currently watch time pass… one click at a time. Fam is playing board games while I meander around the house not breaking a toe.
Severe weather rolled through today and while heading home took the power. Going on four hours now.
Can at least charge phones and keep things going,.. feel lucky as it could have been worse.. check the house tomorrow.

If there is nothing, not even IP or network or computer info to link to a person, it doesn't seem like GDPR then.

It's not, it's just GDPR-like. And we are coming up with a compromise as best as we can. It's just an interesting situation to have something like a GDPR, for anonymous data, because while the data might not seem anonymous, to the system it actually is. If it was posted recently, we might have something like an IP log, but it's not current, and the logs aren't kept. So there isn't even that!

ReadOnlyFriday before March Break with the SO and kiddos
We do the ROF and ROM (Read only Friday / Read only Monday) here most of the time. Occasionally we'll have to do something on a Monday. But maybe 2x a year do we make any major changes on a Friday.

Unintentional post storm walk,… office I was at for training has no power, generator won’t start either… build been down since mid afternoon Friday now.
Walking the warehouse may have found previously unknown roof damage. That’ll add to the Monday stress…

Uhm yea…
They didn’t know. Flat roof issues. They have 50# bags of sand up to hold the membrane down until they can get more time on it.. it’ll likely go to insurance or the investment group … -
We did a show on Saturday with our new drummer... turned out ok. Here's a link to the 1st two songs.

Good news, bad news, good news...
Good news, I found the dea mouse that had been stinking out or storeroom
Bad news, it was in the box of HDMI cables
Good news, only one cable that wasn't still in its plastic bag had dead mouse sticky on it -

We ended up having to pay a little for Fed, and got very little back from state. All around close to even, but still enough to annoy the wife.
