So, this is a bit embarrassing, but I created an account on a sketchy porn website just to watch a video. All they asked for was my email address, a password, and a captcha. But after signing up, I couldn't even watch the video! Now, when I try to delete my account, it just tells me to submit a deletion request, and it's under review. I'm worried about whether I'm in any danger because of this. Can anyone help?

You're probably okay. Just ensure you're not using your main email for stuff like that, and try to avoid those sites if you can.
Most people end up on those kinds of sites, so you're not alone. It's good that you used an email you don't typically use. As for the account deletion, the request system can sometimes just take a while. If you're truly concerned, maybe consider checking if you can reach out to them again for confirmation.
I did use an old email for it, but I'm curious if the account deletion request is a red flag. Thanks for your take on it!
Chill out, buddy. No need to shame folks for their choices. Just focus on your own stuff.
Thanks for the reassurance!
