Pitch

Mastodon should include outgoing reports in data exports.

Motivation

Mastodon doesn't currently include outgoing reports in data exports, which means data exports are incomplete and thus Mastodon is in violation of the GDPR.

This seems like a reasonable request, although since a similar request came up elsewhere, I would like to note again for the record that Mastodon, as a piece of software, cannot violate or satisfy the GDPR, only enterprises using Mastodon can satisfy or violate the GDPR.

Since we retain information about reported accounts which have been deleted, we should probably exclude that information from the archive, and only include information about reported accounts which have not been deleted.

I think mastodon should try to make GDPR compliance easier for admins where possible.

Can we have a more descriptive title for this issue, for example "Include outgoing reports in data exports" which is what is being actually requested?
