Delete yourself from the internet

Updated on 23 September 2020

I  started using the internet in late 1998. All these years I have tried so many services. I have signed up for the services to know the appearance and functionality and sometimes attracted to their freebies. Lately, I realized that not all free services are safe!

After NSA leaks in 2013. Microsoft, Apple, Google, and other companies changed their attitude towards privacy and security.  They started giving more control to the user and practicing transparency. 

I am deleting my unnecessary accounts since 2008. Recently I have read the WikiHow articles regarding how to delete the services. And I thank the EU (European Union) for bringing the GDPR Law. GDPR made mandatory on 25 May 2018 and it gives super control for the user and it makes it easy to delete our accounts.  Not all companies are implementing worldwide but some services which I use are enabled.

Here are the WikiHow article links:
