    Largely, yes... but they can still be introduced via USB drives, CD/DVD, etc.

    A bit of joke

    Of course you can delete yourself.
    Alone the government won't let that happen and if you have friends they are posting things and maybe pasting images of you while we speak.

    You are there for good.
    Update: A deletion of features that work well and ain't broke but are deemed outdated in order to add things that are up to date and broken.
    Compatibility: A word soon to be deleted from our dictionaries as it is outdated.
    Humans: Entities that are not only outdated but broken... AI-self-learning-update-error...terminate...terminate...

    You can delete yourself from the internet by removing your online accounts and shut down your email accounts or you can use a VPN for a secure browsing.

    Death smiles at everyone. Grumpy old men smile back.
