Goodbye Facebook

That’s it – I’m out – got to wait for the 14 days now before the account is deleted from Facebook.

As promised, I was asked whether I’m really sure that I want to delete my account – have to enter your password and the 2 CAPTCHAs before getting the confirmation:

Last step before account deletion?

Doesn’t quite end there: next, I get an email, Subject: “Account scheduled for deletion”, as below (just that WordPress handles the incorrect <br/> tags sent via mail correctly, corrects, and compensates):

Hi Sven,
We have received a request to permanently delete your account. Your account has been deactivated from the site and will be permanently deleted within 14 days.
[...]
Thanks,
The Facebook Team

In the mail, you’re also prompted: “If you did not request to premanently delete your account, follow this link…”

Extra headers in the mail:

X-FACEBOOK-PRIORITY: 1
X-Mailer: ZuckMail [version 1.00]
X-Facebook-Notify: account_deletion; mailid=
X-Facebook: from zuckmail ([MTI3LjAuMC4y])
	by www.facebook.com with HTTP (ZuckMail);

Let’s see whether that does it… but is all the content gone? Who knows… but it was time to echo principle and values in behaviour!
