And they still know who/what you are and will continue to gather data on you.

Say it ain't so. I did this with FB nearly a decade ago, and yet feel this is the next plausible step. So many movies will be lost.. well 5 to be exact

Google still hasn't, but anything public facing just got better in terms of low level actors like Twiiter/Antifa doxxers.

Welcome to the fight. My eyes when 'cloud' gets rolled out in the office pumping confidential discussions into these fuckers clutches, while the Director pushing for that works gets high praise for innovation. Our corporate class are retards in America. Not up to the pace of post-internet world. Countdown to the inevitable data breach.

Unfortunately, deleting it doesn't mean it's gone forever. You can delete something and still recover it, Google has all info on your regardless.

Yeah you didn't delete anything. May as well keep the access to it and add no more data.

Lol, well I think anyone of us with Google or like accounts are pretty much screwed which is why we need to be prepared to go off grid.
