Forget that, even if they delete your account, your data will forever be theirs.

I’d still prefer to formally request it be deleted. In the future if it ever gets exposed that they did not delete my data, I have a path to sue them.
Personally, I wouldn't want a fight like that. I deactivated my account at least 10 years ago and I never felt like deleting it, as that would mean reactivating it and then deleting it, I'll leave it like this. 🤙
