The only reason I haven't left FB is because I don't have access to my account and even with a government issued ID (that can redeem even financial accounts) I can't access my Facebook to delete it because "you didn't set it up to recover with ID card".

I guess it's like the Hotel California!

I deleted Instagram (& FB but no-one uses it here.) and I have to admit that it make a difference, now I don't get to know stuff which I don't care from people that I don't even know.

Sadly it's difficult to know ppl, but I always wanted to say "I can give you my email." xD
