I just deactivated my Facebook account.
I had to enter my password twice and pass a CAPTCHA.
You know, if I had to go through that hassle to activate all the new “features” (like the super-creepy timeline) they keep introducing, I probably would have kept my account.
Oh, and they said pdb would miss me if I left.
I just did that last night, too.
Then it turns out someone I know became a firearms instructor and all his messaging with that is done through a Facebook group. Sigh.
I deactivated mine a while back, but had to reactivate it, turn off the email notifications, then deactivate it again. I kept getting all the emails. I wish there was a way to actually delete it.
