Moving to another country is quite difficult unless you are sponsored by an employer there, have dual citizenship, or are rich.

Sure you can fly there, but your tourist visa will run out in a few weeks and they will kick you out if they can find you. So now you're on the run, and good luck finding a job, renting an apartment, or getting health care with an expired tourist visa.

Oh and if you're an American, you won't be able to open an account in a local bank because American banking laws control all banks everywhere.

The above are generalizations and some countries are easier to move to than others. And all of them IMO are much more difficult than deleting Facebook.
