Great subject. Data brokers should be considered as a threat to social well-being rather than a source of information.

The congressional hearings with the credit agencies after their huge data leak was a watershed moment for me. Hearing them say we have no right to opt out of data collection in regards to credit scoring blew my mind. The data brokers selling the info right back to the govt is even worse now.

They have downgraded my credit score from 900 and it goes down all the time even though there is no cause. I refuse to bow to corruption 😤

Even worse, if you move, the post office doesn't just forward your mail. They send your new address to every business that has requested that information!

next time readers get a letter from a business, they should notice the printed message about receiving address from post office. if you move, DO NOT put in a mail forwarding to the post office, just notify those who you desire to have your new address!!

Naomi sparkling in elegance as always.

I worked indirectly for a data broker. And at least some of that data is wrong. I checked my simple address data, and found problems. I have never felt so unclean. These companies destroy lives, and they never get checked. inferences from data, are wrong, wrong, wrong. My address info, was perhaps, 40% correct. But, this is the reason they do not give you easy access to your data. Because it costs them money to correct the data. Say you and your wife divorce, and she goes in another direction. This new data thread, is now attached to you. And yes, I COULD not get a government job? Why? Because I registered with selective service, mixing my first and middle name, when I was what, 17, after being adopted, and quite frankly was not quite sure of my legal name because of adoption. I was wrong, or my adoptive parents reversed it. etc.etc. And also, even some peoples report, has false arrest warrants. And if you are a POA, then the person you are POA over, gets their info, trashed. They all of a sudden, seem to be attached to your address.

Oh, they're definitely rats all right... Thanks for sharing this experience, Ghost & Naomi.

Thanks Mr Harri!

I guess KZread forgot to show me this video. I just came to your page wondering where you've been. 😮

good to know LBRY is still rocking . Naomi ROCKS 🤘🏽💗

i hope ghost was able to recover from the suit

It's a real eye opener as was your last video on this subject. It must have been frightening for Ghost. Great advice as ever Naomi. Thank you.

This sounds like a system waiting to be intentionally abused.

Great video, as usual (and unfortunately accurate). Cheers, Christopher

such a big business of data collection and sharing.

Naomi , ThanksMuch for sharing !

Interviewing someone who's been that seriously harmed by data brokering - nice.

Thanks for reporting on this!

Naomi love your vids can you tell us what to do when your forced to install a privacy non respecting app like schools and jobs do or how to hide your OP system or identifiers because now privacy respecting apps are know less then lets say google or something

These companies need to be illegal. 1. Incorrect information being published about someone is called slander, which is illegal. It is the responsibility of the publishing party to make sure the information they are publishing about someone is true. It is not our responsibility to amend or correct the information. It is theirs. They are responsible for making sure their claims about someone are true and correct. 2. Websites never ask permission to collect your data, they just say "by using our site, you consent to our privacy policy and use of cookies". The problem with that is: silence does not equal "yes". Silence is not consent. When you open a website to be visited and viewed by the public, it becomes a digital public space that anyone is allowed to visit by clicking on a link. Just because someone enters into a public space, or even a private property that is open to the public, does not give the owners the right to change the definition of consent. Consent is a yes. Silence is not a yes. Not even movement around the site equals "yes." That's not consent. That's an assumption. Making an assumption of consent is not actual consent. Even if you leave the site upon realizing they collect data, the site will have already collected data about you upon your entrance to the site. You never gave consent for them to take digital property from you, which would be your information (data), but they took it anyway. That is called stealing. It is actual theft that can and should be argued in a court of law. What's worse is they are selling millions of people's stolen digital property. We know digital property does exist because of online games that offer items in exchange of paying real money (usd) to the game. These are nonphysical items that only exist on the internet or within apps, digital objects that have real monetary value. The same thing with E-books. They are digital property sold or rented in exchange for real money. This proves that digital property does exist. Data would also fit into the category of digital property. The data brokers do not automatically have this property, they have to aquire it from someone, and they aquire it without actual consent. An assumption of the meaning of movement does not mean "yes". Aquiring something from someone without their consent is called stealing, which is illegal. Websites steal our digital property, sell the stolen property to data brokers, and then the data brokers sell that stolen property again. 3. They use cookies and web beacons to track which websites you visit after leaving their website. If for example you were walking around New York City and walk into a shop to browse, leave the shop, and a person follows you out of the shop and starts following behind you as you visit other shops, taking notes of all the shops you visit and everything you browse and buy...most people would call the police for stalking, which is illegal. What these companies do to us, is stalking. Especially if you visit a p*rnography website while the cookie or web tracker is still taking notes of you, its essentially as if someone followed you into a bedroom or bathroom, where you have a reasonable expectation of privacy, and someone is secretly watching you without your consent. These businesses and data brokers are taking notes of all the p*rnography you watch, which should be a very sensitive and protected category that should uphold the same privacy as a bathroom or bedroom, there should be a reasonable expectation of privacy. "Oh well it's anonymized. No one knows its your data, we removed personally identifiable information from the data" is what they say. Well...if someone went into your bathroom while you were indecent and took your underpants from off the floor, sold them, but kept the identity of the original owner of the underpants a secret, do you think that would make it legal? Or morally right? They still stole something very personal from you. You never gave them consent but they took it anyway. Cookies, web beacons, and data brokers need to be stopped. It is stealing, it is a violation of privacy, and in a lot of cases where information is wrong about someone, it is slander. And the person who is being slandered should not be the one stuck with the responsibility to amend or correct the false information. That is the responsibility of the individual or entity publishing that information. The publishing party is responsible for making sure their claims about someone are true. If they are not true, they are directly responsible for slander.

Thank you for posting

More reasons to secure our privacy and our life.

Pretty distressing revelations.

Nice video, except the part when you advise people to use VPN. That would actually make your privacy situation much worse, because all your internet traffic would go through servers of some shady VPN company, and they could collect a lot of data about you. VPN makes sense only if it’s provided by the company you work for, in order to securely connect your work PC to the company network while you’re working from home.

When police has to buy your data through third party apps you know you state and laws are a joke. 😂

What do you think about incogni?

Thank you.

i been playing for over a year a company to delete my info at data brokers. does it actually help?

Thank you :)

Unfortunately the video does not explained enough the data brokers activities. Too much focus on one person experience.

I do my best to corrupt their data bases with conflicting false data. Poison the well!

Thanks! :D

Dang. The plot thickens. I just heard that John Deaton is your representative. You couldn't have a better person in your corner.

Dash is planning a real-life meetup of dash community members in Utah happening end of Sept. Any chance you can make it?

I would rather my data be disinfo then real thank you very much!

Imagine getting a heart from Naomi ❤

The uniparty is not doing any good movement on this by voting for them therefore voting good third party is the way to move to a better because they can educate the masses on such things as data privacy and ending the patriot act and that kind of economy.

Bloody cheek. I want 50% cut

I mean pegasus was made by the israeli government but no one wants to talk about israeli's practices in corruption with most of congressmen in United States have leadership or power in israeli. The problem isn't the people its the foreign powers into our country that affects our freedom and rights. And since foreign they can focus target against our own income with taxes and benefits for themselves by taking it away from the American people.
