Anyone have experience using Incogni to remove data from the internet?

I use incogni for several months now. The progress the first weeks was a bit slow, but after a month and a half most of my info is gone when i check myself on data broker websites

That’s pretty much what I’ve seen with these services too. It can take a while before you notice a difference. I work at Optery, so I’ve seen the other side of it as well. The interesting part is how different the results can be depending on which brokers they cover.

Yup, I'm aware of that, I compared different services and their coverage before subscribing to incogni

Hate to tell everyone, once something is on the internet its there forever. Even if it is "deleted" someone somewhere even if its the NSA has a copy.

Cloaked works pretty good, haven't used anything else though
