Summary of what was posted earlier: 1) this is just a onerep rebrand. 2) there's this list: https://github.com/yaelwrites/Big-Ass-Data-Broker-Opt-Out-Li... 3) a yn startup called optery is a competitor, kanary is also decent I think. I think the optery founder said 1 common use case is you can sign up for 3 months and then cancel. optery has a 20% coupon for men: ug2jhG1j and this one for women: olCpMjJI or maybe they're vice versa.

If you ever do this manually, the data brokers that have data removal options will first show you an ad for using a removal site. Because that way, they at least get a cut of the proceeds when you sign up. Data brokers don't get much benefit from people doxing $some_random, other than a few dollars for every thousand people who do that. But, they can get $10s of dollars for when $some_random signs up with their affiliate link.

So, you have a clear conflict of interest with onerep not blocking data brokers from their affiliate. It probably doesn't go very deep, but with the subscription-based nature of these privacy services you start to wonder what happens when you churn...

I think if you express an opinion like that you ought to say why too. It could be you have a point. But you could also be (mis)interpreted as a critic who, instead of building things themself, finds imperfections in things the real builders make...

Any other issues besides that possible conflict of interest? Also, you're the founder of a competing service, right?

Reading between the lines I just figured it was a crypto quant firm.
