Just send a GDPR deletion request. Most companies will comply without asking any more questions.
that's the thing, this IS a GDPR deletion request
nevermind: it turns out they won't fulfill it if you're a US citizen because GDPR only applies to EU citizens. welp
Pretend youve just moved there. Use a European IP address via a VPN.
Insanity. In order to prevent any more of your data being collected by us, please provide literally every piece of information that can be used against you if it gets leaked.
In addition, it’s absolutely impossible to verify the authenticity of an identity document from a photo. It’s a completely meaningless request.
Should I just download a fake id and show it
Since they won't be able to sell you loot boxes, chests or gold once you leave, they settle for selling your personal data to highest bidder.
