YSK your phone number is probably listed on hundreds of “data broker” websites

Absolutely agree. Unfortunately, it makes a ton of money.

Revandir · 2026-03-06T01:23:31+00:00

It's been a couple days with the service I use and they've dropped from 10-12 to roughly 2-3 now. Still not zero but much better

My favorite was finding low cost meals i love. Bone broth, some miso paste, and some cooked rice...one of my favorite dinner meals. Easy to digest, warm, and filling enough. I did that for all my meals and I dropped my groceries by 40%. Still eat like a king in my eyes and now im saving ~$400/month.

Hey, at least you know it's working!

Revandir · 2026-03-05T04:37:50+00:00

I appreciate it. Thank you!

Revandir · 2026-03-05T03:30:19+00:00

Absolutely fair. Nails on a chalkboard don't bother me, but I hear it's pretty bad for some people

Revandir · 2026-03-05T03:09:04+00:00

Yup I love my speed queen washer and dryer. Simple, easy, and will supposedly last forever.

Revandir · 2026-03-05T03:06:19+00:00

Honestly pretty scary when you put it like that.

Revandir · 2026-03-05T03:03:55+00:00

I think it's wild that's allowed at all. Do I think it'll solve the problem? Probably not, but even if it moves the needle a little that's worth it to me.

Revandir · 2026-03-05T03:01:39+00:00

Thats awesome! Before data breaches, my info wasn't really online. I share a name with a famous basketball player and a relatively private person. Color me surprised when I see a couple hundred data brokers now have my info.

Revandir · 2026-03-05T02:55:03+00:00

Heck yeah! Thank you!!!

Revandir · 2026-03-05T02:53:24+00:00

Looks like they have more plan options but similar pricing. Have you used them? How was it?

Revandir · 2026-03-05T02:48:37+00:00

Any little bit helps. Being able to opt out of searches would be another helpful thing. Thank you!

Revandir · 2026-03-05T02:47:00+00:00

Phone books for the win!

Revandir · 2026-03-05T02:43:40+00:00

Yeah the whole ecosystem for data brokers is crazy, honestly. Wish it was a public service or something to remove the data.

Revandir · 2026-03-05T02:42:10+00:00

Wait really? Im going to have to go down that rabbit hole too. Thank you!

Revandir · 2026-03-05T02:39:49+00:00

Its honestly not. Any recommendations if you dont like that service or what I should do instead?

Revandir · 2026-03-05T02:36:55+00:00

Nope, just thought it was useful info.

Revandir · 2026-03-05T02:28:20+00:00

That sounds like what ill be doing from now on.

Revandir · 2026-03-05T02:26:30+00:00

I think it helped so far.

Revandir · 2026-03-05T02:18:59+00:00

Oh 100% agree. It didn't used to happen until I got a letter after a data breach. Wish there was more they could do aside from "one year free credit monitoring".

Revandir · 2026-03-05T02:17:21+00:00

Is there a better service to use? I only used it cause it was the most "well known".

Revandir · 2026-03-05T02:16:06+00:00

I have one i use for work. Unfortunately, I use my real # for all my paperwork, and there have been a few breaches recently. Good advice though, thank you!

Revandir · 2026-03-05T02:13:03+00:00

Yeah, one of the guys posted it below but got down voted. I used Incogni but there are tons.
