Is there a difference between locking your account and just removing the email and keying in a random password? Once you've logged out, your account should be effectively locked permanently.
- sokoloff 12y agoThe difference is if you've posted anything that you regret and the account can be somehow linked to you, that old content still is attached to you, you just can't write any more of it...
- tbrownaw 12y agoIt would make a lot more sense - and probably be easier - to fix social norms to recognize that people change, and that old comments from the person you used to be aren't from the person you are now. I would assume that this will happen on it's own, as people grow up with exposure to their own permanent record and notice that they don't recognize their old selves.
