Their response is such bullshit. If it didn’t blow up on socials, they absolutely without a doubt would have done it, and even now they say they won’t, but their automated systems claim otherwise

Nah it’s just outrage bait. It’s come up before many years ago.

I would be surprised if most online services don’t have similar language to outline an ability to remove accounts. It would be weird not to.
