> It's always interesting to me the number of people who come out on HN to advocate vociferously for ownership of their private data, given that HN doesn't even let you delete your account ;)
It's true HN doesn't let you delete your account, but I'm not sure most HN account information is really "private", since submissions and comments are all public. Maybe a user's voting history is more sensitive. But it's not like HN (to my knowledge) is aggregating data on its users from other sources.
