How to remove your account

[Lance]

You realise this is actually a legal issue and "right to be forgotten" has a proper meaning.

Thought not.

you realise that information posted anonymously, containing no personally identifiable information, is not covered by GDPR?

Thought not.

I can't see any way to do it can you please advise?

I want my account deleted and all of my information removed, I want to invoke my right to be forgotten.

The footer on every page has a "Contact Us" link which you could use to contact Them.

"I don't like it so it must be illegal." Heard that before.....


PERSONAL INFORMATION is not your made up fake handle...

But there is a link from your username to your email.

I think there is an argument that at some point in the future, the thought police will deem a lot of what is posted here as illegal with retrospective laws.

Better to delete it all now than have the woke police tracing it back to you and using it to secure a conviction.

Is this the new “test please delete”?

This is definitely a valid question and I would be interested in what the correct answer is. It does not help that this was posted in General and OP has got a roasting.

What is the policy regarding deleting an account and all the information related to that account? Will posts still show the user name? Can you go back in time and connect the dots and be able to find out who made a post in the past?

You've asked this before, I believe the general answer to your question was - get bent...

Not yet, it will be if everybody starts posting what they had/plan to have for tea, lunch, dinner etc etc

Pan fried pheasant breast tonight for dinner along with roasted vegetables and celeriac purée.

Email is not public, plus it can be changed by the user - deleted even (the email account).

Yes I did. I very much doubt you did, since you just copied that from someone else's comment after your initial bleating.
