If you try to Google yourself, you may find an alarming presence of personal information, including addresses, phone numbers, and family details, available for anyone to see. What’s even more unsettling is that many of these free listing websites can publish your information without your consent. This exposure naturally raises concerns about privacy and security, and an effort to remove this information from various websites is recommended.
Staying private online is more important than ever in this day and age.
