Show HN: Delete yourself from data brokers without a subscription

I signed up for a paid service to get my phone, addresses, and vehicles off the public internet. It didn’t work. So I built remove-your-data, an open-source repo that tells your agent exactly what to do to remove your personal information online.

Open-source data removal workflows are a huge win for privacy transparency. Automating opt-out requests directly without relying on subscription-based brokers gives users real control over their personal data footprints.

Thanks, but I suck at hacker news and this already got deleted. Oh well.

How does this differ from the paid services? What do you do that they don’t do? What do they do that this does?

Compared to what I use, this does everything a paid service does and more (including the ability to see exactly what happened with verbose logging, custom removal, built in dashboard, etc).

After using a paid service, I don't know of anything they do that this repo doesn't.
