If someone resurrected your deleted texts and emails - deletion being the explicit expression of your non-consent to sharing, it would be difficult not to interpret it as an act of aggression.

If they don't respect your consent, why should anyone respect theirs?

I hate to respond to your questions with more questions but the novelty of your's compels me to do so. Please do not take offense.

How do you reconcile the differences between the private nature of communications like text/emails vis-à-vis comments on a public forum?

I'm interpreting "they" as Reddit (or any large media corp.), would I be wrong to interpret "anyone" in this context as a state actor?

Consent. You either respect it or not. If you believe you don't need someones consent and they believe you do, you have a pretty serious conflict in front of you.
