I'm assuming he means because federation, even if you delete something its mirrored on other instances
Sure, but the deletion is also mirrored to the other instances no?
EDIT: I suppose it should be alright if you mention in your privacy policy that if you interact with other instances their privacy policies apply as well.
Yeah, but companies can also "choose" to ignore GDPR requests. I don't think talking about instances not following the spec and deleting things when requested is relevant.
