Delete VKontakte page and restore

VKontakte is one of the most popular social networks in RuNet. With it, you can chat with friends, find new friends, view photos and find out the news. However, in the 21st century, people sometimes go beyond the bounds of reason, sitting on social networks for several hours daily. Sometimes it can even develop into addiction. Therefore, citizens for one reason or another want or are forced to leave this service. This article will talk about deleting the VKontakte page and restoring it.

Why are people being removed from social networks?

Of course, there are many different reasons for deleting a VKontakte page, and each person has different ones. However, a number of basic motives of people can be singled out, because of which they decide such a “feat”.

One of these reasons is that users are afraid for the security of their data posted on a page on a social network. Some are afraid of the possibility of hacking his page, or the fact that someone else can see his personal information and use it against the owner of the page. Therefore, in order to maintain their confidentiality, they resort directly to deleting the VKontakte page and all the data posted on it.

Another reason is the fear of spying on the page by the government and the FSB, which obviously cares about the information of others of the most ordinary person. Having watched various television programs, some run to delete their pages, as it begins to seem to them that somewhere upstairs are people reading all their messages and viewing information that the user unknowingly publishes on his wall. However, to believe it or not is the right of the person himself, and everyone decides for himself.

Also, many people believe that sitting on this social network is already a relic of the past, which long ago lost its relevance. By deleting their VKontakte pages, they peacefully crawl into Facebook or Instagram, paying tribute to fashion.

Many people leave this social network due to the strong dependence on the opinions of other users, as well as likes and comments. In an effort to become popular and promote their page, they sometimes forget about home, work and family, “living” their whole life on social networks. Realizing this, people are trying to get rid of this addiction forever, and the easiest and fastest way is to delete the VKontakte page.

And the most common of the reasons why people decide on such a “selfless” step is to attract attention. Sometimes people want to pay attention to themselves and want to communicate more with people not on the Internet, but in real life. Thus, they want to distance themselves from false friends who write when it becomes just boring, and devote more time to their real friends, walk and have fun, and not sit for hours staring at an empty monitor.

Page freezing is an ideal option for those who want to “end” their dependence on VKontakte, but are not completely sure of their willpower and are afraid that they will “break loose”. There are several reasons why network administrators freeze pages of certain users. It:

• Distribution of inappropriate content.
• Deliberately unwinding your page, winding likes, reposts and comments.
• Sharp and suspicious activity.
• Numerous complaints from users.
