DiegoDiego Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 ETA - I never said “you’re deleting Facebook.” I said deleting their Facebook account.Lots of people do talk about "deleting Facebook" though which is indicative of slumping standards of English. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Facebook will exist without you, everything you've ever typed, clicked on, or linked to is still available to be analysed by market researchers, and any pictures you've uploaded will be sold for advertising purposes in the decades to come. Not if you're one of those clever folks who copied and pasted that text saying they didn't authorise Facebook to do so. As long as they did it before any of the countless midnight deadlines and encouraged their friends to do the same, obviously. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, that option is to delete your Facebook account (according to your screenshot), it doesn't delete Facebook. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Not that it matters, but I've always figured that most people who "delete" Facebook are using the app on their phone, and just say they've "deleted" it because they uninstalled the app. That more-or-less makes sense, although it's usually attention-seeking pish. If they think they've "deleted" their account, then they're in for a surprise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Priti priti priti Patel Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 I'm not quoting the boy because I don't want his attention, but he's a fairly new user who's been dribbling all over the QOS thread this week. I don't think he's quite got the tone of P&B yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's always rumours and warnings, yet somehow noone actually gets their dog stolen. Fair fucks the article says London, but I'd be willing to bet both my bollocks most of the 300k signatories to the petition heard about dog theft on fb, probably by swarthy blokes speaking foreign.
