       Please boost this. If you deactivate/delete your Tw*tter account, your @ handle will be publicly available in 30 days. The chances that you will be impersonated with no recourse is very high!  Don’t do it - especially if you had a fairly popular account. To wipe things, deactivate your account, then go to bird site /login and reactivate it. All of your followers will be gone. Now lock the account and let it rot. @semiphemeral is a great tool for wiping data, including DMs.#twittermigration

       @thedragstate I'm worried people will think deleting their DMs on Twitter will actually delete them, when in fact its much more likely that they just get a "deleted" flag in the database, and a database leak will still include them. Or am I wrong about this?
