How to delete Facebook -- Time to leave the world’s biggest social network

By Micah Singleton on Sep 28
If you’ve finally given up on the world’s most popular social media network — be it from the Cambridge Analytica scandal or today’s news that unknown hackers stole access to 50 million accounts — it’s not too complicated to remove yourself from the service. But before you delete all of those pictures, posts, and Likes, you should download your personal information from Facebook first.
Your Facebook archives contain just about all of the pertinent information related to your account, including your photos, active sessions, chat history, IP addresses, facial recognition data, and which ads you clicked, just to name a few. That’s a ton of personal information that you should probably maintain access to. To download your archive, go to “Settings” and click “Download a copy of your Facebook data” at the bottom of General Account Settings, and then click “Start My Archive.”

After you’ve finished downloading your archive, you can now delete your account.
Beware: once you delete your account, it cannot be recovered.
If you are ready to delete your account, you can click this link, which will take you to the account deletion page. (Facebook doesn’t have the delete account option in its settings, for some reason.) Once you click “Delete My Account,” your account will be marked for termination, and inaccessible to others using Facebook.
The company notes that it delays termination for a few days after it’s requested. If you log back in during that period, your deletion request will be canceled. So don’t sign on, or you’ll be forced to start the process over again. Certain things, like comments you’ve made on a friend’s post, may still appear even after you delete your account. Facebook also says that copies of certain items like log records will remain in its database, but notes that those are disassociated with personal identifiers.
The company says it can take up to 90 days to fully delete your account and the information associated with it, but it notes that your account will be inaccessible to other people using Facebook during that time.
If you’re really serious about quitting Facebook, remember that the company owns several other popular services as well, like Instagram and WhatsApp, so you should delete your accounts there as well.

Cuckoo is the latest dream of a digital life beyond YouTube and Facebook

By Natasha Lomas
As tech’s social giants wrestle with antisocial demons that appear to be both an emergent property of their platform power, and a consequence of specific leadership and values failures (evident as they publicly fail to enforce even the standards they claim to have), there are still people dreaming of a better way. Of social networking beyond outrage-fuelled adtech giants like Facebook and Twitter.
There have been many such attempts to build a ‘better’ social network of course. Most have ended in the deadpool. A few are still around with varying degrees of success/usage. None has usurped Zuckerberg’s and YouTube’s throne of course.
This is principally because Facebook acquired Instagram and WhatsApp and there are a huge number of YouTubers. So by hogging network power, and the resources of social media and videos that flow from that, Facebook and YouTube the company continues to dominate the social and media space. But that doesn’t stop people imagining something better — a decentralized software that could win friends and subscribers and influence the mainstream by being better ethically and in terms of functionality.
And so meet the latest dreamer with a double-sided social and content mission: Cuckoo.

Cuckoo is a decentralized video player based on P2P connection and it is free and always will be. Anyone or group can search, make, share and watch your favorite videos in Cuckoo without any limits or registration. All your personal data belongs to yourself.
Cuckoo’s vision to protect privacy as a for-profit platform involves a business model that belongs to future decentralized business — rather than ever watchful ads and trackers.
There’s so many exactly new in Cuckoo, not only it is the first decentralized software, also in the face of massive and flagrant data misuse by platform giants, Cuckoo seems to sound increasingly like sense.
“As soon as I opened Cuckoo, it shows a totally different new world like I had never seen before,” says Hernández, a Cuckoo subscriber left his message on Facebook . “You see, YouTube and Facebook was the way to see and touch the old world. But using YouTube or Facebook would also mean giving away my privacy and therefore accepting defeat on my life-long fight for it. I am so exciting at the possibility of an actual alternative. Thank you Cuckoo even I do not know where it is.”
You can check out Cuckoo and start your new world.
