In the past with both Amazon and Spotify I was very frustrated by how many links I had to click and how many circles I went in before I could actually cancel. There's also no way, that I can see, to completely remove your facebook messenger account. Even if you shutdown your facebook profile there's no way to shutdown messenger. You can uninstall it (which I did) but people can still send you messages and will likely think you're ignoring them. Edit: Yes there are instructions online, but since facebook's inception there has likely been a thousand different interface changes and procedure changes. Android does the same thing, so does Windows. The internet is littered with mostly useless instructions now.

(OP) User ID: 77347206 United States 04/01/2021 11:36 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | To be fair, if you speak about a few "certain" type of topics, they'll close out your account for you. Quoting: Realist411 This could be a great tactic if you know you want the account to remain inaccessible, without the temptation to ever go back to it. I have considered doing this. I do not want to end up on some other list for doing it. Thanks for response eddy2 |

You can do it without saying "NASTY" things too. Change your name to something ridiculous...I changed mine to Regina George and put a picture of her movie character. I was banned within 2 days. I didn't have to say anything. They banned me for impersonating a fictional character blah blah blah...terms of service violation.

If you search for 'permanently delete facebook account' however it shows up the first site on google and the third site on duckduckgo. deletefacebook.com |

But Facebook banned me for being in DC on January 6th. I didnt bring my phone or anything but I did let two individuals know that I am safe via private messaging. Nothing posted publicly. But FB scoured private messages and nuked those that were there or suspected of being there. |

Some are fired or go out of business from just one or two posts. It's damn shame what is happening to mankind because of a few handfuls of rotten, despicable things.:( I just started popping in to post vaccine news that's being censored by mainstream, national news.... and I have a feeling that I might be going out in a blaze of glory there really soon! (So, there's that Op!) Otherwise, idk, you really have me imagining, an organized inundation of glpers and glp topics... |

The sooner you'll delete them the better and be careful what you say on the Internet. You might think that you have rights to say certain things and hence you say things right now. However, when SHTF, they will be looking for the people they need to purge and they will be getting all of the records from the social media sites. Then they will analyze everything and will find their targets for purging. |
