Dear Mark Zuckerberg: Democracy is not a Facebook focus group

I have genuinely, honestly been planning on doing the whole complete deletion thing for about 6 months now, since the election turned up to 11. You know what's stopping me?

I signed into Spotify with my FB page years ago, and now my entire musical personae is tied to my FB account. This [1] is the closest I've come to finding directions on how to do it, and eventually I will, but right now...it's just so damn easy to stay logged in. Agreed that FB at this point in my life is a detriment, but they've locked themselves into other parts of my life that are not. They know this...that was their plan.

i contacted spotify and they were able to migrate my account - playlists, favs, etc - from facebook to my email (i was using the same email for fb). they provided me with a "free month" of premium since i had already paid for that month through the fb account. other than having to contact the COs for a couple of accounts my FB-free life couldn't be better.

sigh

Sometimes I really should just ask instead of trying to do it all myself. Good to know. Facebook Free come this weekend.
