Not everyone understands the consequences of posting and that that content may never fully go away. We can't force them to learn this lesson when it's too late. It seems like we should have some measures in place so people who didn't understand the risks at the time have a solution. Deleting your account may not be truly permanent but it will help someone who wants content disassociated with them in most cases. We can keep the content available under a different name ('deleted' or a random string) and then the conversation doesn't get destroyed.
