Yeah, I did this, following one of the guides (possibly the one linked in the parent). It definitely worked with the worst of these bottom-feeders: mylife.com

It definitely worked with the worst of these bottom-feeders: mylife.com It involved phone call to an Indian call-center. While remaining polite (not easy) but persistent, I had to listen to multiple dumb pitches about their "services". I stuck with it and in the end they removed my name but indicated it "may" come back. That was in 2018. My name no longer appears when searching their website. I do, however, get MULTIPLE garbage emails per day from mylife indicating "changes" about my profile and that of my family and neighbors. I have avoided dealing with 3rd parties for this stuff. In addition to the fact that they may, as Krebs indicated, racketeer with the scummy brokers there's ALSO another concern: Some of them PAY the data brokers a percentage of the fees they collect to remove names. The last thing I want is for these bastards to get any money for their activities. BTW, the founder and CEO of Mylife.com is Jeffrey Tinsley. He appears to have made quite a fortune doing this data-broker shit.
