Even before I heard the devastating, horrific news of political assassination in Minnesota, I woke up this morning thinking about Emily Dickinson's great poem "'Hope' is the thing with feathers -"

I want to choose a data removal service for data brokers and the like. I know about the massive opt-out lists on GitHub to walk through, but I know data will reappear on the brokers as soon as I finish. Right now comparing Incogni and DeleteMe. Anyone use one and have a real review/advice for me?

I think it's also worth remembering for times ahead that resistance and assistance come in a lot of different forms, not all of them overt and public. In my own life, I send money for things I, for whatever reason, don't talk about publicly, because I've determined that's the best way to be useful.
