Can confirm that this is the case for me as well. (EU resident.)


Have you considered filing a GDPR complaint? I would really encourage you to do so.

I found this: https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/refo...

You should use the Euro judicial framework to get resolution for this 100%.

Americans like to complain about European legislation but this is a perfect example of government powers done right! (I'm a dual American/French citizen living in the US).


I've just spend good 15 minutes on it and in case of France it seems far from trivial. It doesn't look like it's a matter of sending a single e-mail.


Can you kindly opine? I am not in France at the moment so I'd love to learn what issues you are facing. Sorry to waste your time but I think this is a critically important topic if we want to preserve our data, privacy, and related rights into the future.
