Basically what it says in the title. Too many sites make you jump through all these hoops to have your account deleted, and sometimes even then don’t do it.

I know about justdeleteme, but unfortunately that doesn’t cover a lot of things. Threatening legal action with my state’s attorney general—in one case, anyway—didn’t work. Maybe the EU will pass some legislation that will carry over to the US . . .

Anyway, don’t mind me, just griping.

EDIT: Sort of like the “unsubscribe” button you get at the bottom of some emails. Did they have to pass a law to get that enacted?

      Can’t even find information on the FTC site that shows it was blocked.

      All I found were actions that appear to me to be the FTC equivalent of pardons for exxon and shell executives who had been banned from being ceo’s, i’m sure because they were horrible people, yet now are allowed to be ceo’s again. i didn’t read too closely though, i might be wrong and hope i am but i wont kid myself, it’s probably worse than i imagine.
