While not exactly the same, reminds me of the "Roach Motel" Dark Pattern [1] which intentionally increases friction to completing an action by users that would be detrimental to the business (such as deleting one's account). Amazon is another example of making it nearly impossible to figure out how to delete your account unless you search for the steps or go through a lot of trial and error. [2]
