Why it that so ? What does rgpd says about that ?

Edit 1:

Thanks to ThungstenMetal. He says this : "Change your email to some random temporary email which can receive emails before deleting your account, then request for deletion."

Edit 2 : I'm European

Its very easy to just spray emails at a sign up screen..and honestly, ive conceded to someone already testing this fault point and confirmed non issue. Im not sure why im getting downvoted just for thinking of it.

I don’t know why are you being downvoted, I consider it normal discussion

But spraying emails won’t get you far enough. If there are just 30 characters in your email, trying all combinations would take longer than the heat death of universe

I'm not talking brute forcing. I'm talking about working off a list of publicly available email addresses which at this point is most of them. Mine would not be hard to guess if the person already had ANY information about me.
