Deactivate account button should be added to steemit

Good day Utopians.

I want to make a suggestion about the need for account deactivation button. I believe every social websites have it. Whatsapp have the deactivate button, facebook have, twitter have, gmail have.

There are numerous reasons a member might want to deactivate his/her account. Cyber bully, Internet celibacy, hacking to mention a few. In a situation where the account has been hijacked by another individual, the person might want to close down the account for safety purpose. This will prevent identity theft.

Below is a screenshot of the utopian settings page with no deactivate button

Below is a screenshot of the facebook deactivate button

I believe the deactivate button should be added as shown below

This will give the members a sense of belonging.

The screenshots were taken from the steemit website with my Hp Laptop, while the facebook screenshot was taken with my Lumia windows phone with the opera browser
