Having worked at a company that had a massive influx of GDPR requests we weren’t prepared for, this one could actually cause them some trouble if Reddit don’t have that process properly automated.

You’d be surprised. I’ve worked with some even pretty large companies that just don’t have a good process for this and rely on people doing some semi-manual process to prepare a response. My current employer got swamped with requests unexpectedly and had a hard time dealing with them all.

Interestingly finding them was the hardest part because requests can come in to any part of your business, even via social media: https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/uk-gdpr-guidance-and-resources/individual-rights/right-of-access/how-do-we-recognise-a-subject-access-request-sar/#socialmedia
