Those other things have almost no budget or even have to worry about maintenance beyond the first use (rockets startups are potentially changing that of course). I think you are overly pessimistic. There has never more a better time in hist

I looked up self cleaning restrooms and how to purchase. They are extremely expensive 300,000-500,000 USD and break constantly due to vandalism. They appear to be very hard and very expensive in practice. You may be thinking of self cleanin

You assign users a temporary IMSI which is done in the cloud right? How does this protect against IMSI catchers and Stingrays if they are done local to you? Local cell tower spoofing? Also, this is just for data? So if you have another SIM

I have noticed this too. Midjourney seems to have poorer quality and can't really do face but is vastly more "creative". I wonder if there is a trade off between a larger data set so more accurate and how creative it can be.

I think it is cool you want to do this and there's no shame in a job while you do things on the side. I'm not sure about the idea of moving to a place entirely to be around other tech people. If you have an interest in places like

I could kind of see this working. You could potentially check what these people are looking at or what ad groups they are part of based on their demographics.

An API for housing and prices? Isn't there a bunch of real estate APIs out there? What is missing from these?

Ask HN: Assuming any barrier could be overcome, what API do you wish existed?

We put 2 options up - them or My Data Removal. Elsewhere online people seem to have an overall good experience with Privacy Bee. I do not think they are a scam or fake company no. My Data Removal is cheaper so might be more worth it

Unfortunately it is. I tested out the same steps outlined in this book as well as data removal services and it does not matter even 8 months later. Don't believe me? Please try to follow this book and check back if our tool is still fi

We use a ton of sources. You can google data brokers and try some. But just because you find one and get them to remove the info, doesn't mean it is gone.

This data is copied and combined by hundreds of data broker companies, you can google around. Trying to remove the data is pretty futile, but our service prevents the damage that can be done by finding this information. That's why we m

This is not correct. A bad actor can find search for numbers a million ways (buy numbers that connect to a cell tower, search by birthdate, who responds to your spam, etc). We are a cybersecurity company and our entire leadership team has a

I do not know what their legal team has advised them. Pretty interesting how most of these sites who show you unredacted information seem to be run by people with no internet presence and stock images though.

Visa and Mastercard used to sell data on credit card purchases until a law was passed in the last decade. That information will forever be connected. To this day you can purchase phone numbers that connected to certain cell towers.

1. Privacy laws dictate we can't point people at uncensored data. 2. We are a cybersecurity company. We don't want to show people how to hack others. 3. It would lend to the common belief that there is one source of data that you

I built this tool. This appears to be mostly American problem in terms of how easy it is to find data. Canada seems to be second with far less info.

I understand your concern but we are limited by current privacy laws (for good reason in my opinion). I doubt we will build goodwill by showing everyone how to view unredacted information. Feel free to check out https://haveibeen

In short, there are laws on data resellers vs data brokers. Data resellers can provide uncensored data and their sources but there are many more hoops for them to jump through in terms of who sees that. We would have to do due diligence int

The scoring model is based on how likely you are to be targeted and hacked. Multiple points of data make it exponentially easier to do successfully. So just one address is not always the worst thing. Having tons of data on your phone (even
