There is no way to delete your steem account?
I've been trying to find a way to delete another account but there is no option for it. You might want to do this for any number of reasons.Am I missing something?

Correct, you can't delete your account much like you can't remove an address from the Bitcoin blockchain.
Sorry if the plagiarism fighters were harsh on you. It was probably because there was a chance someone could have interpreted one of your video posts as claiming the video was yours.
So if I share any article on here I have to specify I didn't write it? Thats moronic. If that was the case sharing on the internet would be massively tedious as you would have to include this with every link you post.
It looks like you've been doing it right, though when it comes to Steemit related content it could be assumed that you created the video, since it was about Steemit.
welcome to the #blockchain :)
Accounts cannot be deleted the same way that you can't delete a bitcoin address. Once you use your address to do a transaction it's there for posterity in the blockchain. Steemit.com is a website that interacts with the Steem blockchain. I am not sure but I think that you can edit your posts so that the content is erased. This will make the content no longer visible in the website however it can still be viewed in the blockchain if someone is willing to look for it.
That means the site is illegal in Europe. They have "right to be forgotten" laws. This is actually an issue.
I am not a lawyer but I don´t think it´s illegal. Steemit.com is under USA jurisdiction so european laws should not apply.
If Europeans access the site they may.
