Further, even if they did allow developers to use this data, it’s still a private discussion behind an authentication wall. I have seen it argued that taking such posts and publicly posting them is a violation of GDPR, and it may well be because of how broadly this law is written.
Live by the sword, die by the sword. It isn’t OK to ask people to violate the GDPR just because it suits you in a given situation.
The GDPR deals with processing[0] of personal data[1], not data about anything else any entity wants to remain somehow restricted. Other legal regimes may deal with disclosures of that kind, but not the GDPR.
[0] ‘processing’ means any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction;
[1] ‘personal data’ means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (‘data subject’); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person;
