Facebook

As it turns out, deleting a facebook account is not as simple as it seems. They really bury the option to be able to permanently delete an account. Deactivating an account is simple enough, that option is simple to get to. Luckily we have google to solve most of our problems these days. I searched "How to delete a facebook account" and there were tons of answers. Oddly enough, one was a facebook group...

Why delete facebook? You could say that facebook is the great equalizer, everyone becomes an immature child. I am sick of seeing adults become sniveling little bullies and snots. The internet empowers people to be jerks. There is no physical contact with a person, you can just hit and run. I never really used facebook as a serious tool to convey my emotions. I mostly was my goofy self on facebook. Every now and then I expressed sincere emotions, generally much to my regret. It is a sad state to see what this world has become through such a medium.

I also deleted my account for the privacy concerns. Facebook is starting to sell users information, and that I am not down for at all.
