Probably because it doesn't work. You can remove specific information from specific websites, but most of that has been scraped and copied already. You can request that companies delete information you have already handed over to them, but you have no power to compel them to delete all the information that they learned about you by analysis of that data.
If your phone gives Google a list of your GPS coordinates over the last 30 days that's your data and you can request that Google delete it. They don't care, because they've already used that to learn where you live, how often you go to bars, where you work, how often you go to the gym, and who you've been sleeping with. That's their data, not yours.
Data brokers don't care about deleting your data. Their data about your data is what they get paid for.
