The DMV and the post office(if you submitted am address change) are the most likely offenders.

Privacy guides?org has a fairly active forum

In the US it can even vary by state. Dying without a will or transfer on death assets can be a nightmare for the deceased family. My father died without a will and my mother and I spent a year jumping through hoops and dealing with lawyers trying to get everything straightened out.

I encourage everyone to take a look at their local laws related to the subject. You may be surprised at how things would work out without some planning on your part.

I should clarify. I have zero spam at my new email Addy and 20-30 at my old hotmail account.

I dramatically reduced my spam by switching to proton email and requesting removal at the big data brokers. Inteltechniques.com has a list of data brokers and how to request removal of each. There are a ton of brokers but I just did the big 6-8 brokers that they recommend starting with. I went from hundreds of spam a day down to 20-30. YMMV.

Yep I’ve been working through the old shows and remember him talking about that. This was weird that all the episodes were removed…even recent ones. I just found his podcast so I’m hoping its just a temporary hiccup.

The podcast is currently down. A new show was published the other day and then quickly deleted as well as all the old shows. It’s not clear whats going on with it…legal or technical issue.

Long story short. I googled my name and city and was sufficiently creeped out. Ive been online a long time and just didn’t notice how much privacy had eroded around me. It’s like that parable about how to cook a frog. They just slowly increased the temp on me. Fortunately I’ve jumped out of the pot before I got cooked alive.
