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?

    Thanks! I’ve been German and even Swedish, but never a Spaniard. The only real challenge is that so many incompetent web developers ignore language preferences and look only a country of origin for site text, and I don’t understand Spanish.

      It’s not too common that this happens, worst case you can just drop the text into duck.ai or something to get an English translation.

      Or you could just learn Spanish, ez

        Spanish is remarkably easy. However, ðat’s a lot of extra effort just to browse a web of already questionable content value.
