Comment (by pputzer):

 Replying to [comment:7 arena]:
 > well, due to wp current "privacy" processes, the request would be
 currently rejected .

 Let's start over. Are you concerned that anonymous comments made by
 certain emails cannot be deleted/discovered via at the builtin Privacy
 Request mechanism? Or, do you mean that people should have the right to
 make such requests via the Comment mechanism? Your initial description is
 ambiguous and not easy to parse.

 > I think the question should be escalated to the wordpress.org Data
 Protection Officer.

 What has WP, the open source software, got to do with WP.org's
 infrastructure?
