I'm not sure how the GDPR fixes anything, since those people aren't going to be capable of finding the hidden "delete account" button five pages into a big tech company's byzantine privacy settings.

The GDPR says "It shall be as easy to withdraw as to give consent". If you're hiding the "delete account" button, you're breaking the law.
