If you want to be more aggressive, you can pay a service like Kanary that Googles you, submits removal requests, and then does a deeper search across data brokers and people search sites and submits removal requests as well.

It's unfortunate, but useful if keeping your info off these sites is important for safety/security. We're advocating for the CFPB to tighten regulation so this isn't such a challenge for people (and companies).

If interested in the technical challenges of scaling this, we're also hiring.



Cool service and I hope you do well. Feedback: it's a little expensive for me. I'd pay about $50/year for a scan every 3 months. I know you want the ARR but I'd also pay $15/scan. Then you could have an opt-in reminder option to remind me again in 1/2/3/4/5/6/etc months.


good feedback ty - we'd like to test a lower cost tier. This is very helpful and common feedback from folks who don't need as intense support as our earliest adopters.


+1 for Kanary.

The amount of time/effort/rage that goes into dealing with a stolen identity makes paying for this a no-brainer.


Why thank you!
