    Couldn’t we just stop using it. I can’t imagine deleting the account will have any measurable impact because I don’t trust them not to just retain the data like Facebook does.

      Stop using it in addition to blocking them at the network level via DNS or IP blocking. It doesn’t matter whether you use it or not because they’ll continue tracking you across third party apps and websites anyway.

    I can’t do anything with my account because it’s been suspended. For the past 3 years. 😂

      Send a GDPR deletion request in accordance to article 18 to whoever they mention in the imprint as data security officer.

      All it takes is claiming to have moved to the EU.

    i dont have one, the best way, is to simply stop using it. Also most people use it for PORN anyways.
