Rather than erase your data, seek to control it. I'm a former data protection officer for a data broker, you can never really hide without disconnecting; rather it seems better to control the data you put out.
Edit: without sounding like an obtuse nonce I mean to say it's better to assume they have this data no mater what you select, if you want to limit their access spoof your location and feed them garbage data
