I’ve heard their ads on podcasts but never used them. I’ve used Google to remove any of my info online with some good results. I had multiple sites remove my info.

I just emailed the only guy who might know anything about it (the login info), who sold his business and retired but rumor has it he used the same password everywhere so how's that for security? :rolleyes:
