imho if they actually delete your info afterwards, this is actually useful. (currently deleting a lot of accounts; opened a support ticket on one site that said that i want to delete my account; after a while without response, the login didn’t work anymore so i assume they just deleted the account without confirming it to me (like, i guess that is exactly what i asked for but i’d rather get a quick email so that i can mark it as deleted in my password manager than having to check if the login still works))
The alternative to that is things like Facebook where you can’t actually delete the information because they instantly reactivate the account of you “try” to log in again.

“Reactivating” a “deleted” account begs for a Patrick–Manta-Ray meme.
And a fine.
Mostly a fine.
yeah, people that design platforms that way deserve extra hell
