It’s impossible not to notice the dramatic rise in scams and phishing attempts over the last few years.According to the Joint Economic Committee of Congress, data breaches dating back to 2017 have cost American consumers $20.9 billion to date.The same report notes that, “In some cases, data brokers have sold personal information directly to scammers.

In 2021, for example, several data brokers agreed to pay nearly $200 million to resolve federal charges that they had knowingly sold data on vulnerable consumers, including elderly Americans, to scammers.”Not only do data brokers collect your information and sell it to anyone with money and a motive, but they also make it hard for you to assert your right to privacy and have them remove that data.According to a report from 2025 in Wired magazine, data brokers took steps to hide their opt-out pages that allow users to request data be deleted or not sold from search engine results.Fortunately, PrivacyHawk exists to do the work of maintaining your data hygiene on the web.PrivacyHawk empowers consumers to regain control of their digital footprint.
