Description
Apparently when you delete your account, people you've previously chatted or shared files with get an email saying "\ just deleted their account on Keybase" – is that really necessary? I can think of many different reasons why people would want to delete their account, and in none of those scenarios is the situation improved by raising awareness of the fact that they're doing so.
Facebook doesn't email you when one of your friends deletes their account. Twitter doesn't. Google doesn't. I can't think of a single other service that announces account deletions – why does Keybase?
