Do you ever wonder what it would be like if you had no internet presence at all, and could live a glorious, pain-free existence free from tech?

This is 2016 – of course you do. Between Brexit and Trump and countless celebrity deaths, you’d be forgiven for wanting out of this total crap-shower.

Well it turns out you’re not as hopelessly trapped as you think – there is a way out.

Wille Dahlbo and Linus Unnebäck, two developers from Sweden, have created Deseat.me – a page which allows you to wipe your entire web presence clean.


All you have to do is log in with a Google account, and the programme scans for any apps or services you’ve created accounts for.



It then puts them all in a handy list, like so:

For every account it finds the programme gives you a ‘delete’ link, which takes you to that service’s unsubscribe page.

It probably takes a few clicks per account to delete, so – depending on how much of yourself you’ve put out there – it should only take you an hour or two to work through the whole thing.

After that you can sign up for that ashtanga yoga retreat in the hills you’ve been dreaming of, and put all of your social media angst behind you.
