I can understand that deleting posts is not nice for the people who posted an for the integrity of the information and context, but the link I am referring to is of a different nature, that is the /user?id=me could be deleted without breaking any thread. To add that feature seems a reasonable and sensible compromise between privacity and integrity of information.

For a feature request or a question to the admin it's also good to use the support link. [I'm not an admin]

      Hacker News is an American site run by an American company, probably hosted on an American server. It might be nice, as a courtesy, for them to add this for their considerable European userbase, but the web is global, and not everyone has to care about what Europeans consider to be their rights.
