For some of them I kind of lost access so I would need to write emails to instagram or whatever, for others I would need to remember and to access to each one of them and delete them.

The hardest would be gmail with people having my contacts from like 10 years ago…

I have an old Facebook account that I’ve lost the password to. I still have access to the email it’s associated with, but to reset the password (and subsequently delete the account) I’d have to prove my identity to Facebook. Which I can’t because I didn’t use my real name.

Now the account is oxidizing on Facebooks servers; I sometimes get “someone tried to log in to your account” emails and I’m like “go, take it, have fun!”.

Basically, if I can I delete old accounts, if I can’t… Well its not my servers that get cluttered with old shit.
