To those deactivating your bird accounts, here are two posts detailing how to do that so as to protect your data and privacy:

Because I’m not sure if we can bookmark stuff for later ✌🏼
@TheAbbotTrithemius @voltronic Done and Done, thanks for posting this
@TheAbbotTrithemius @voltronic - An easier method is to just get yourself a permanent ban, not so hard to do post Melon Husk. Poof, your posts, lists, and followers vanish from Twitter pretty much forever. But there's always our friend Mr. Peabody available to drag them back out.
@Bubblehead
Yes - Wayback Machine and other tools can get a lot of things you have deleted, and I suppose that's also true for banned users.
My question is if anything is done differently as far as data retention on the servers for banned users.
@TheAbbotTrithemius @voltronic
Also...keep your Twit ID so no one can steal it ...not sure of the details, but I'm staying there for now because there are a few nice ppl there still and will close once my ID is protected.
I should credit that step 2 in the "Basic" deactivation instructions is from @Render
