The fact that such services exists drives me up a wall, that thoughtless and careless business like facebook, Amazon and Google have worked so hard to collect/sell people’s data, and now we have to pay third parties to hunt it down and get rid of it.
If it helps, the EU is planning on forcing all services to offer a no tracking and no data collection option… either free, or for a fee, at the service’s discretion.
Can’t wait for cookie popups to start coming with “accept all” and “pay to customize” options 😒
The information I’ve had to give them is: name, phone number, date of birth, address.
I believe this needed to match your profile correctly, since there are probably people that share your name.
The services that it’s removing me from know so much more though. My family members, all my past addresses, the people that I lived with at each address.
It’s a bummer that this kind of thing has to exist at all, and you have to give up more personal info, but it’s definitely a net positive for your privacy.
The only 3rd party I can find connected to this is Have I Been Pwned. Are they not reputable? Or is this not who you're talking about? Genuinely curious as I was thinking about trying out Mozilla.
