I'm not even convinced deleting (and especially deactivating) your account does anything besides handing over control to Facebook and others. Perhaps it is better to obfuscate the data in your account and just not log in, even if emotionally less appealing than deleting. |

I used to advertise on FB so had to maintain an account purely for this purpose but noticed a few times that 'people you may know' were usually a result of random encounters looking me up. Maybe because only facebook can verify you're not a creep or something?
One time I asked soemone out on a date and she seemed keen until the next day she had changed her mind. Probably pure coincidence that this person I didn't know until 2 days before was suddenly one of my 'people you may know' list.
Sure enough my blank FB profile was the giveaway that I am actually a serial killer. Now I'd rather these people just go down a rabbit hole of looking through 1000 possible matches and finding nothing instead.
