10 Reasons You Should Delete Your Facebook Account

1. We Can€™t Actually Quit Facebook

Quit Facebook Or rather, we can, but they really don€™t want you to. Facebook will offer any alternative to us to avoid us removing our account and all the valuable, valuable information we€™ve given them free of charge over the years. Their favourite is to allow us to deactivate our accounts€ which means that we stop using them and other people can€™t interact with them, but that Facebook still has access to them, and all of that information. Even if, by some small miracle, you were to ferret out the hidden link to the page that allows actual, genuine deletion of your Facebook account, along with all of the information, photos and connections you€™ve made over the years, Facebook will hold off permanent deletion for two weeks, during which time any access of Facebook or any of its affiliated sites will automatically remove the deletion request completely. That means no taking a picture and sending it to Instagram, you know. Like a jilted lover, Facebook will take the slightest hint that you€™ve changed your mind to mean that you still love them, and that you never really wanted to go. But you probably didn€™t really want to leave anyway, did you? Because that€™s the other thing, the final problem. The thing that gets in the way. We won€™t delete Facebook€ because all of our mates are on it. Which leads us right back to where we came in.
