In, dunno, 2005 I think, I found two or three articles online written by people who tried to shut down their facebook account, and to have all their postings and stuff permanently deleted.
They described that this was impossible, they described all the hassle they had with facebook.
So I decided never ever to join fb.
I was young, I wasn't really internet savvy, yet I found that information and I learned from it.

@DCR@troet.cafe Your comment isn't helpful to people who want to leave Facebook. For some people deleting Facebook has nothing to do with how much data they collect or keep - for some it is doing what they can to end their relationship with an abusive tech company. Or, it can because Facebook is a source of negativity in their lives; my own fundamentalist Christian relatives were the reason I deleted mine. "It's impossible because they still keep some data about you somewhere."
