The question is pretty straightforward--it asks if you have a Facebook account, not if you are a "user."

Sure, but sans context this is a pretty empty bit of info.

Carrying this on further - I have a MySpace account as well. I haven't logged on in 5 years, but I do have one.

There are 2 kinds of people in this world -- lumpers and splitters. Maybe we should take a poll on that.
I assumed the question meant "user." As far as I know, Facebook never really deletes your data anyways. Far better to unfriend your real-life friends (message them first) and delete your existing posts (or "faux-delete" in reality, haha user!) and then fill your account with random, fictional garbage.
It's easy to answer if you take the question at face value. But is taking this question at face value very meaningful?
