The founders of Databricks and Stripe explicitly structured the terms of their later rounds such that they could remain private indefinetly if needed in return for operational control. Basically the "Rich versus Kings" [0] dichotomy

> Didn’t you say you wanted (sic) tour account deleted? Yet here you are

CCPA requires proof of identity for an account to be deleted, which I do not want to provide due to my professional network's overlap with YC. I'm waiting for HN's mod team to eventually ban my account and subsequently delete my comments like they did for a few others.
