    TL;DR Only if you misunderstand the intent of the word “delete”.

    In the sense of getting rid of the sites themselves, sure, that’ll never happen.

    And in the sense that once you’re known to them you’ll never be forgotten, at least not without a massive lawsuit that you’ve little chance of winning, yes.

    But you can ask Meta to delete your account(s) and everything visibly associated with you to the point that you no longer have a presence on any of their sites, and that’s what this article is about.

    One of the reasons Meta has been creating fake AI-based accounts is because so many people are doing this and they don’t like it and want to make it look like their site is still active. Which is an excellent reason to delete your accounts, even if they weren’t also doing a bunch of other heinous things.

    And you can delete the apps from your phone. You should delete your accounts first though.
