woof User ID: 13268035 United States 08/14/2012 12:12 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Would love to delete my account but i would have no easy way to network dogs and other animals in need. I run a dog rescue and since posting on facebook, have gotten more adopters and donors to help keep my rescue afloat. Plus I get to stalk old boyfriends and see how fat and bald they all have gotten! |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 17362492 United States 08/14/2012 12:13 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I deleted mine about 1 1/2 ago. Only had it for a couple months anyways. I was talking about of Israeli terror and crime, and I didn't want to get on the no fly list to Israel to get into Palestine like those 2 girls did, so I deleted it. Probably still on the no fly list anyways lol. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 20818969 Australia 08/14/2012 12:23 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I HOPE EVERYBODY IS AWARE THAT SIMPLY "DE-ACTIVATING" YOUR FACEBOOK IS NOT ENOUGH, THEY HAVE HIDDEN THE LINK TO "DELETE" YOUR FACEBOOK - BUT SEARCH IN THE RIGHT PLACES AND YOU WILL FIND WHAT YOU SEEK - I HAVE DONE THE WORK FOR YOU... Quoting: Anonymous Coward 20818969 HOW TO DELETE (short version) Go here: [link to www.facebook.com] Click "Submit" and follow the instructions. Read below - click (read more) - for important information! Please, don't skip this. Descri ption Ever tried to leave Facebook and found out they only allow you to "deactivate" your account? All your personal data, including photos, interests, friends etc will still be saved indefinitely! You don’t have to be a conspiracist to find this quite fishy (or simply annoying)! Maybe you see no reason to leave Facebook yet? In any case, information about how to close an account should be easily available to all members. Join this group to keep the information handy the day you appreciate your privacy more than updating long lost “friends” of your life. ------------------------------------------ HOW TO DELETE (long version) Go here (working link above): [link to www.facebook.com] Click "Submit" and follow the instructions. Your account will be deactivated for two weeks, and if you DO NOT USE FACEBOOK IN ANY WAY during that period, your account is permanently deleted. I REPEAT: Your profile isn't deleted right away! You must NOT log in to, or interact in any other way with Facebook for at least two weeks, as it will cancel the deletion request. That includes NOT logging in to Facebook using any client (like the iPhone app or IM:s like Pidgin), NOT clicking embedded Like-buttons on other websites, NOT logging in to other services using Facebook Connect (like Digg) etc etc. Hey, while your're at it, delete all your browsing/forms history and cookies as well, to minimize the risk of accidentally using your account! If you want out - stay out, mmmkay? ;) This method is official and should be complete, i.e. no need to delete individual photos, comments, messages or items from your profile or anywhere else on Facebook! If you have any concerns whether your stuff is actually deleted (as opposed to being kept somewhere in the deep dungeons of Facbook's HQ) your best bet is to ask them using email: [email protected]. Even though this is a permanant delete, ever wondered why it takes two weeks... probably saving and selling all your info anyway make sure you actually delete your account, not just deactivate |
TheAspartameAddict User ID: 14644643 United States 08/14/2012 12:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You need to use your facebook to make people at least think out of the box a little bit. So many of them just wanna see a cute kitty and never even really think about the government pumping them in the butt. And at least a lvl of truth or questioning will always exist on facebook. Or would you like to wait till it's only dumb people on facebook and they think they have the whole country snowballed into Free Kool-Aid for all people on facebook from Oblama day? Stick tidbits of "goodness" out there when you can on facebook. Be that little thorn of truth out there amidst all those people sharing clever catchy phrases with pictures. |

Loook I dont care if you delete your facebooks I hope you do facebook is basically just a place that you go to turn in all your photos to the CIA. What I'm saying (what youre too fucking stupid to get) is that deleting your facebook isnt going to make the world a better place. in fact its just going to further alienate you from all the people who arent going to delete their facebooks because a) they dont care b) they dont know and c) they actually enjoy having their privacy smashed because they secretly imagine themselves as better than others, and one day they hope to be higher up the evil pyramid if you want to make hte world better you need to use your brain and not jump on bandwagons just because they make you feel cool and smarter than everone else and thats what this is really about. you think that if you delete your facebook you'll be doing yourself some good and that somehow you'll be better than those other sheeple that still use facebook. well newsflash that just makes you a 2nd level tool. youre just not INTELLIGENT enough to see that youre causing net harm in the world with your arrogant, myopic attitude. and i dont mean that you can never be smart enough to see the truth, just that youre a far ways off. youve probably never had an honest, deep thought in your entire life. because a) you dont know what a deep thought is and b) youre kind of a wretch, your soul is impure but if you start analyzing your life and your little pett emotions now, in a couple years you could be WAAAAY closer to enlightenedment |

I'm not going to lock myself up so they don't lock me up. “We must keep the people busy with political antagonisms." “We’ll therefore speed up the question of reform (of tarrifs within) the Democratic Party; and we’ll put the spotlight on the question of protection …(for) the Republican Party." “By dividing the electorate this way, we’ll be able to have them spend their energies at struggling amongst themselves, on questions that, for us, have no importance whatsoever." - United State Bankers magazine, 1892. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 11132818 United States 08/14/2012 01:37 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | facebook is evil, it's being used to control comments to various blogs and news websites Quoting: Anonymous Coward 11132818 facebook is a data miner and surveillance op on the public in general and you in particular for you know who. The entire internet is being tracked. Delete your Facebook Day may as well be "Cancel your Internet Service Forever" Day if you want the same effect. Do you really think sites like this aren't being watched? It doesn't do much good to delete your FB account if you're worried about being tracked. it's a bit more than just that, fools post their entire lives on fb so that others can know their moment by moment activities. Sure, in the land of the free, someone is making a record of everything you do with media, instead of preserving the nation, or security for the citizens, but at least they have to interpret it, not simply read it in detail and look at the pics. Posting anything sensitive on the net or even chatting on the phone is a security event for your public 'servants' who are making sure you dont rise up and demand they account for their work in your name, and with your money. |

wut User ID: 19069027 Norway 08/14/2012 02:05 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Facebook is making users into approval addicts! They need approval for everything they do, just like sheep. It's sad how powerful people take advantage of our simple minds... I deleted my account a few weeks ago, havent missed it for one second! If your an addict, i suggest that you deleted Facebook on your phone a week or two before actually deleting your account. Hope to see the FB stock plumit on the 31st! :D |
