Ew I just looked up my name and it showed my phone, address, neighbors and relatives? Why?

Crazy stuff. I bought a car 2 years ago from a dealership that didn’t get a good word from me at the end. I wander if that’s when it was exposed

So I just called the company with my info and spoke with a very helpful robot who said it will take about 8 wks to clear my info

I did it once to find someone and where they live. It’s extremely invasive I agree, but you can put in a request to seal that information. Luckily for me it hasn’t updated my information since 2019 so I have no idea what factors contribute in how that information is updated, but yes, all I need is your first and last name and a general idea of what state you are in to find out where you live.

That's the world we live in today. Zero privacy

What if I have a hater out there

[NotInterestedSorry]

They don't care.

You didn't read the terms and conditions to all the websites you use. Everything you do on the internet is gathered and sold, that includes your address, age, family members, address, etc.

Because you- or, more frighteningly, someone who knows- was careless in releasing it.

Welcome to the land of the free and the home of the brave! Us poor Europeans have to content ourselves with pretty strong privacy laws. 😬

If you think thats bad,, wait until you see what comes up on a background check

[MementoMori777]

[DarkLegacy]

Oh fuck anyone can find you, where do you live, that wouldn't occur in any European country.

Just delete it. Plain and simple
