permanently delete your facebook account

MyComputerAid — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 05:46:11 +0000

It is now possible to permanently delete your facebook account. In the past after disabling your facebook account it would remain on the facebook servers forever, meaning that you could re-enable your account at any time in the future with everything still there. It was almost like facebook didnt believe you where going to leave or just wanted to keep all your information “just in case”. Now it is actually possible to permanently delete your facebook account for good, no returning, no traces of your account to remain on facebook (so they say). All you have to do is go to this URL and put in your email address (yes its real and aparently works).
