A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Nice reminder to delete that account too!
Although it is now called "deactivate"
Rememeber to poison the data too!
Which is funny, because after doing so they give you a popup messaging explicitly stating that your account is deleted.
Can't trust them at all.
If you truly want it gone, you need to use their special form: https://help.glassdoor.com/s/privacyrequest?language=en_US
not a user of glassdoor but how do you poison data?
Companies like to keep posts/comments/other data, but they rarely keep the history of changes you've made to that data.
So before deleting the account, replace all the data in it with garbage. Then it wont matter if they keep it.
name: bigdick
Last: daddy
unemployed
etc
never provide honest data to these 3p data aggregator clowns
Shouldn't you change your account info to something fictitious, though?
I am not sure if it matters as long as it is NOT true.
But I can see how making it some what believable might be more effective. Does anyone know?
The joke was that your name is actually Bigdick Daddy.
Chad joke but it deff went way over my head :(
Before you delete your comments and reviews change them to something very basic and neutral?
