Reddit claiming they weren’t recovering deleted posts

I’m not sure if it’s a coincidence, but I raised a case with the ICO in the UK, and today they got back to me asking for all my communication with Reddit. Also today - after a month of silence - Reddit also emailed me with this

If you’re in the UK and had been affected by posts being restored, I’d recommend contacting the ICO. It takes less than 5 minutes

Oh, so we all got the same bs copy pasted response at the same time? Mine took over a month, so I’m referring it to ICO.

Oh so it was literally a co-incidence I got it a few minutes after the ICO email?

Apparently so. It’s impressive how it took them 1 month+ to come up with this from their “Legal Team”.
