That will remove your account from public view, but will it remove it from the data they use for AI training?

If not, you’re just enhancing the value of their proprietary data.

Why wouldn't they enhance it themselves, like Twitter has been doing for months? Once they make signing in mandatory and implement per-user rate limits the information will disappear from the internet and will only be available to people who are paying in some way.
