What's up with that, Zuckerberg?? I'm done. How can I cancel, erase, remove, axe, eliminate my account?
Facebook Cancel
I can absolutely sympathize with you. It's the only site I know where I have to go through the personal privacy settings and ensure things haven't "developed" to leave my information, connections and data more exposed to either search engine spiders or the public than I want. Really, it's pretty incredibly lame on their part in a society where individuals complain all the time about loss of personal privacy in the digital world.
That's another topic, nevertheless, I suppose.:-.
If you make certain that you do desire to delete your Facebook account then here's how you do that.
Are you sure that's what you wish to do, nevertheless, instead of just entering into the personal privacy settings and minimizing your direct exposure?
Okay, alright. Here are the actions ...

Remembered your password? Good. Now show you're not a robotic:.
This CAPTCHA needs the words "Society" "darneder" (whatever that suggests). Get in those properly and click "Submit".
Success! The account is formally shut down, removed, deleted and ... um, just a sec. As you can see from the text above, Facebook does not appear to erase your details, simply shut down the account. I'm guessing that's not exactly what you desire, but it's the very best you can do.
