I haven't been on Facebook in something over a decade and received an email today saying that there was a request to reset my Facebook password. I decided to long into the account to delete it but the only option Facebook gave me to confirm my identity was to upload a scan of a photo ID. What insanity is that? I'm obviously not going to send them a copy of my dl. Is there any way to nuke my account without logging in or to log in without sending them any information they don't already have?

Q: When did Facebook decide it was ok to demand a scan of your driver’s license? A: when people became stupid enough to scan their driver's license and send it to a website
