- picture 4y agoNot all sites offer that, especially smaller ones. I've had to deal with this before, and even emailing every contact email I could find doesn't help. I ended up changing the passphrases of all the other services instead.
- ajot 4y agoWhen I started using a password manager I did this: change repeating passwords, and delete info on sites I don't use any more. JustDeleteMe [0] has a good list of account deletion methods and links for different pages. [0] https://justdeleteme.xyz/index.html https://justdeleteme.xyz/index.html
- NikolaNovak 4y agoSadly that's either obscure or unavailable for majority of sites. (similarly and a major peeve - vast majority of signup verification emails do not have a "no this is NOT me that signed up, delete this email" option! My email gets misused a lot in some countries where my name is common and I have no easy recourse to deny it)
