[How To] delete yourself from internet? Here’s a tool for you!

If you are looking for the method to track down all the accounts and links representing you on the internet, then you are in luck. JustDelete.me is the website that lists all the links that highlights the urls to the page you may want to remove yourself from.

It just makes the tracking process so much easier, and lets you delete the instances of you from the internet effectively. It has a huge database that crawls the number of domain and services to list down the websites you might wanna consider to remove your accounts from.

Some companies use “dark pattern” techniques, which makes it difficult and tenuous to delete accounts. This is meant to sway users from successfully completing the removal process.

JustDelete.me ranks each site’s process from “easy” to “impossible,” so you know what to expect ahead of time. For example, Amazon.com and the NewYorkTimes.com are rated “hard” to delete, while movie directory IMDB.com and PayPal are listed as “easy.” Sites such as Pinterest and Netflix are “impossible.”

[How To] permanently delete your Facebook account and stop killing your precious time
Facebook is the biggest social networking website, which is precisely designed to connect the loved ones and exchange the information and emotions of their life with whom they care about. Today’s life on the fast lane requires an alternative way to keep up with the one you care about, and Facebook provides just that.

However, sometimes it washes away the actual target it is designed for. And this is when you need to hold yourself or let yourself off the edge.

If you really want to enjoy your life without spending your precious time on something which is driving you away from actual reason you joined the network at the first time. We will be discussing about killing off the connection with the Facebook permanently.

How to permanently delete your Facebook Account:

Facebook doesn’t offer direct link to delete your Facebook account. However, you can find “deactivate your account” link under account settings>security section. You can use this option, if you’re not 100% sure that you want to permanently remove all that information.

Back to deleting your account permanently.
- Visit the account deletion page.
- You will be reminded that this is a permanent deletion and that your account cannot be reactivated and that none of the content or information you have added can be retrieved.
- Click “Submit.” Follow the steps, such as entering your password, email, and CAPTCHA code.
Now, you just need to control yourself “compulsion to use facebook” scenario and try to tell your mind that you are leading to the better path. Do not log in for the next 14 days and your account will be deleted completely.

If you change your mind before the 14 days are up, just log in and this will reactivate your account.

When you login to your account within the 14 days grace period – facebook will ask for confirmation, whether you want to reactivate your account or keep it under the deletion process. But, I will highly recommend that “Don’t” login to your account again!

If this is your first time deleting from your purchase history, iTunes may send you a pop-up message letting you know that the title is still in your library. This is a good thing. Simply click “OK.”
