Has anyone ever done this by going to the website of a data broker and using their opt out form?
Obviously to do this they ask for information so they know what not to include, but it feels like I’m just giving my data to them or confirming what they already have.
Just wondering what other people think since I haven’t heard anyone talk about this yet.

Same, OP. I wish there’s a way to just give your name and have them delete everything they have on that, instead of possibly giving them even more information than what they had just to request to opt out.
