> Mozilla Drops Onerep After CEO Admits to Running People-Search Networks

Maybe OneRep is fine, but these services always seem a bit fishy, I wouldn't trust or recommend any without strong evidences. I don't want third parties in the path of my private stuff.

Mozilla would certainly have been a strong signal, good on them for ditching the partner, in doubt, I guess.

"privacy partner" seems like an oxymoron.

You link to them, they pay you for referrals, you market you're concerned about privacy.

(that sounds sarcastic: I 100% believe Mozilla is concerned about privacy, it's more indicative of people mistaking the map for the territory, being concerned isn't the same as what is put in place mechanistically to honor that value)
