What is the general consensus on trusting data removal services with the data you provide them?
I’ve spent 5 years telling myself I’ll go through the long lists of data aggregators and one by one manually send removal requests. But it’s such a massive undertaking. I’d like to finally get it done through one of these services, but my gut tells me it feels wrong.
Has anybody used them and how do you feel about it? Is DeleteMe a good choice?
