We think it should be as easy for users to remove themselves from the database as to add themselves.
Our privacy policy, like most others, stipulates that we will remove all data we hold about any user, if requested by that user. In some jurisdictions, it is a legal obligation.
Users would have more confidence if they could do it themselves, on assurance from us that after logging in with their password, a click on the delete button would remove their authentication and permanently remove them from the database.
Associated option: block anyone else from using the surplus username.
