Delete me. There is no comprehensive privacy law in The United States, and these companies, they're called data brokers. There are hundreds of them because they're incredibly lucrative, and they will sell every bit of information. Your name, your contact info, of course, your social security number. It's completely legal for them to, if they can get it, sell your social security number to China if they want. Your home address, information about your family members, your business, all being compiled right now by data brokers and sold online to anybody with the money. And it's not expensive. Anybody on the web can buy your private details, which can lead to well, you just use your imagination. Identity theft, phishing attempts, doxing, harassment. But there is a way to solve this conundrum. You can protect your privacy by deleting this data from the data brokers. Now you could perhaps do it yourself, but there are more than 500.
