 > Wondering if we should also move the `_wp_privacy-*` and user request
 related functions from `wp-includes/user.php`:
 https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-
 develop/blob/0af549fdf50ac779fb68cc0bd688ac283d5195ec/src/wp-
 includes/user.php#L2840-L3650. They are user related, but for both
 registered and non-registered (website) users. Perhaps `user.php` is a
 good place anyway.

 Hi @azaozz sorry to resurface this ticket. I was working on #46536 and
 found the `_wp_privacy_action_request_types` function remains in the
 user.php but is only ever referenced from the privacy-tools.php and was
 wondering if we should move that function there to keep it contained
 within the file it's reference from.

 Also I do like the idea of isolating the user privacy functions, maybe
 into a user-privacy.php. But that being said `user.php` is also a valid
 location as they are user related.
