@fomm@social.tchncs.de @jurjen_heeck@mastodon.nl @briankrebs@infosec.exchange is there one for LinkedIn? I purposely deleted my original LinkedIn account to get a fresh restart with no connections. When I created a new LinkedIn account and instructed it not to be found via email or phone, I was still located by people who had my contact info.

@fomm@social.tchncs.de @jurjen_heeck@mastodon.nl @briankrebs@infosec.exchange is this trustable? Or is it only a new way to get more emails & phone numbers? I was just about to submit my phone number when that “internal skeptical me” got a hold of my thumb.

@fomm@social.tchncs.de Thank you, that is immensely useful. I gave my cell number to my dentist (Lumino) a few years ago, as they insisted I could not use my land line, then found through their contractorʼs T&Cs (which I was never shown at the time) that my personal data had been sold. Itʼs a number no one outside of family and friends should have. This is a start in getting rid of it from databases. @jurjen_heeck@mastodon.nl @briankrebs@infosec.exchange

@fomm@social.tchncs.de @jurjen_heeck@mastodon.nl @briankrebs@infosec.exchange This page isn't sending me the text message required before it will remove my phone number. Just one more disservice from FB.

@fomm@social.tchncs.de @jurjen_heeck@mastodon.nl @briankrebs@infosec.exchange Um, ten years ago, Facebook stated that they never, ever delete anything. Deleting your account, which I did eleven years ago does nothing but de-activate the account. Nothing is deleted. Facebook said that its systems are designed in such a way that they are unable to actually delete anything, nor any mechanisms in place to enable them to determine what needed to be deleted. Deletion is not a thing at Facebook.
