How to remove yourself from Facebook by deactivating your account

Just a few clicks to deactivating your account...

Facebook — now will accounts up for sale ($25 / 1000 where there are less than 10 friends, and $45 / 1000 where there are more than 10 friends) – has again changed their privacy approach – even retroactively…

So – here’s a quick how-to on removing yourself from the system:

  1. Log into your account with your valid username and password
  2. Choose “Account” -> “Account Settings” (top right-hand corner)
  3. Choose “Deactivate account” – last option of those on the page.
  4. Choose your reason for deactivation – top of the list (ironically) is “I have a privacy concern”, with “I don’t feel safe on Facebook” at number 6.
  5. Click on “Deactivate my account” (remember to opt out of receiving future mails from Facebook, too)

But you knew that already! 🙂
