I just deleted my Disqus account, thanks for heads up.

Cool answer. But it makes no sense. Thanks again. Probably yes.

I am guessing they mean the account was not really deleted since probably the account was just deactivated and the data is still with disqus.

This is like something from the movie "Brazil" (1985).

Yes, I hold no such illusions. It was more intended as a indication that I am no longer interested in their services after the news of this acquisition.

Unfortunately the "Other" option when deleting the account did not give opportunity to comment on why the account was closed.

Hopefully they will see a large number of users jumping ship now in the coming days.
