Would be a great idea and I bet it could be successful, but maybe at a lower price point and using lots of automation of opt-out forms. As far as opting out of many credit reporting agencies, check out https://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0262-stopping-unsolicited-mail-phone-calls-and-email https://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0262-stopping-unsolici... https://www.optoutprescreen.com/?rf=t https://www.optoutprescreen.com/?rf=t Also it seems like theres a service like this called Delete Me, but it also seems like theyre a manual opt-out shop. Would be cool if you could find a way to not have humans doing it. Bet they're just having people on amazon mechanical turk fill these out or something like that. https://joindeleteme.com/how-we-work/ https://joindeleteme.com/how-we-work/

Easier to just send them your own template on paper instead of using theirs. It should be like a doctor’s prescription in a lot of places: as long as it’s on paper and has the right elements, it’s valid.

  Well then thats the trick. A legal research team that develops the form for as many sites as you could find, and then a mechanism to send that form filled with each users data to those sites.

    Like, what more do they need than disambiguating identity info and a declaration that I'm opting out? E.g. name and DOB? My only fear is that you're now sending this all to them, but in 2019, we can safely say your name+DOB+address isn't a secret. Or national identity number if that's a thing in your jurisdiction. It's the metadata around it we want wiped out.
