Problem is that even though you visually deleted all that social stuff, the data still exists. There is no escape.

You're able to "delete" your profile now, so that you have to create a new one and re-add everything if you want to go back. You have the option of deleting after two weeks of deactivation. Whether it is truly deleted on their servers is up for debate.
