Fair enough, and I've considered it, but deleting my account still doesn't prevent others from tagging and posting pictures of me for the benefit of those who can identify me through name or face alone. At least with an active Facebook account, I receive notifications whenever my likeness is invoked.

Additionally, Facebook has become the defacto communication platform of the day and not having one is sometimes viewed as a social red flag (or as a lie). My cellphone # has changed three times since 2004, but the respective Facebook query has only become better at finding me. My point being, "delete your account?" is something akin to "cancel your cell service?" except nobody calls and everyone uses Facebook.
