“More than one in five young Americans (18-29 years) identify as LGBTQ (22%). One in ten people ages 30-49 (10%), 6% of people between 50 and 64 years, and 3% of people 65 years or older identify as LGBTQ. Twenty-four percent of Gen Z Americans (aged 18 to 25) identify as LGBTQ.”

Strangely percentages are a bit off though.

Ah yes, you’re right. I read it as “% ot total population of that specific age group” and I guess that is what is meant, but it is not very well phrased indeed.

I think if you are talking about a few percentage points then that is well in the margin of error (especially as these are different studies if I understand that correctly)

What makes you think 50%? The highest percentage in one particular age group is about 28% meaning the average of the whole population is of course much lower.

And that, kids, is what we call a perfectionist.

Thanks. I think that is the same form I used the first time and basically the same as the link I gave.

It is clear that they are trying hard to make it complicated - that’s why I would urge anyone who wants their data deleted to try to contact them, to complain and complain again. In the end paying their support personnel will cost these companies enough money that they might consider a different practice. (As long as it is not simply a bot answering your requests - looking at you, “Bob” from Facebook support.)

If Twitter won’t comply in the next 30 days I will contact my national authority.

Does anybody also know whom to contact on an EU level?

PS: what’s GPA?

Well - the information is not available publicly. But as the system still recognizes my email I can proof that at least that information as not been yet deleted. And I suspect that all of my data remains on Twitter’s servers as of now.

Has anybody here tried to file a GDPR deletion request with Twitter?

It is pretty clear the article is talking about Australian subscribers.

In Australia.

According to the same company (Telsyte) Netflix had about 6 Million subscribers in 2021. So that would make about 3% losses in subscribers.

This kind of verification usually works by the user being visible on camera and holding their ID up to the camera, turning it in multiple directions to show its safety features.
