I'm just insanely glad to not reside in countries where data privacy laws are completely horrible.

The amount of OSINT available on americans is like 2-3$ to access and on each search I can see stuff in your family history even which is just incredibly crazy. Doesn't work on people from other countries.

Food for thought.

Definitely. One of the main reasons Optery is only for U.S. residents at this time, is because the problem is at its worst here. We need a privacy law at the federal level with a strong right to opt out, and some teeth in the law for enforcement.
