Until then, does it really, really matter?

Yes, it does. The man owns the site, and with it, access to personal information. I'd like to know who has access to that, and because I don't, I kindly request to delete my account and all it's accompanied personal data. Please do so before the end of the week. I may re-register if I like the new owner.

goodbye and thanks for all the fish,
Jens

Everyone is telling us that we can trust the new owners, they will keep their word.

Someone confirmed in this very thread that my account will be deleted "by the end of the week", as I requested. That was almost two weeks ago. Need I say more about trust?

I do care who's party I attend. I don't want to be associated with someone who doesn't share my political opinions, and frankly, I do have a right to know who's site it is: German law requires the "Impressum" with a valid street address of the responsible person on every website. It may be different in a different country, but I don't respect that. In the US, collected data belongs to the one who collects, which is - in my opinion - legalized theft. That's why SWIFT has decided to move their backup server out of the US (and I have no idea why the EU decided to still give financial data to the US, but that's a totally different topic).

I kind of expected the new owner to let me know who he is to change my mind. Obviously, he has no idea who I am and what I do, he doesn't care about my decision to leave this site and delete all the content that I left here. Oh wait, does he/she care? My account wasn't deleted, my content is still here, although I don't agree with that any more.

I want to leave the party. Unlock the door. Now.
