ExtremeDullardFacebook never deletes your account. It's an illusion. All your data is still there, you just can't access it anymore.
Actually, in many nations, they're legally required to give you the option to have all your data deleted within a reasonable time frame. There is a recognized "right to be forgotten" in the EU and some other nations. The US there are similar laws in several states. Though you may not live where there is such legal protection, Facebook operates where those protections exist, so they necessarily have the mechanisms and procedures in place to actually delete your data. You just have to go through the right channels to make that happen. It won't happen just because you close your account.

Supervisor194The best way to delete your account was to delete it like I did, in 2010, roughly 1 year after I created it. I realized very quickly what they were doing and I knew it was beyond dangerous. This was not Friendster and MySpace, this was monstrous and pure shit. I've been railing against it (on accounts that require no identifying information) for the better part of 15 years now.
Fuck all of them and any sites like them. If you're still a member, then you must accept some blame, you know it's shit and with a tiny bit of extra effort you could just email your friends and family to stay in touch.
MudManOh, man, I would have to figure out how to log in to my Facebook account first. That'll take a team of archaeologists and a squad of 90s hackers tag-teaming a single keyboard, at the very least.
Now, if you find a way to get the rest of the country to stop using Whatsapp so I don't have to go live as a hermit, that's a boycott I could consider.

I haven't logged in to facebook for a long time and
when I tried they wanted my government ID or else they wouldn't let me into my account.
I don't want to give Facebook my ID so I'm not sure how I can delete my account without doing that.
Not sure if this could work, but did you try using a VPN to log in from an EU country?
Honestly don't know how the GDPR might affect this, but might be worth a try
I tried tor browser (and just made sure the exit node was in Europe) since I don't have a vpn and it worked thank you!
Done and done!
Never had one but have family who has their VR headsets and aren't really using them, borderline useless if you aren't willing to use their ecosystem. They were having some trouble with their accounts (probably related to account migrations) and seemed too unsettled by the *paper wall of text about being part of an organization* to unlock dev mode.
It's easier and more effective to just get yourself banned.
It could be important in the future that you at least indicated to Meta that you wanted your information deleted, even if they don't actually remove it from their servers.
If you just get banned then you don't have that record of deleting your account, and Meta has no obligation to remove any of your information.
Google just lost a lawsuit about user data

Seriously, that does make sense.
