Staying Safe When the World Feels Unsafe: My Favorite Privacy Tool

This year has been ALOT already, and we are just halfway. The ICE raids, Cheeto Satan as our president, Marmalade Mussolini breaching humanitarian laws ON A CONSTANT, AI advancements and possibly being on the brink of WW3? We ALL need a second.

In this kind of chaos, your protection matters. Especially your digital privacy. That’s why I’ve been rocking with DeleteMe for years. It’s a powerful privacy service that scrubs your personal information, like your home address, phone number, family connections, from data broker sites and search engines that make it too easy for strangers (or trolls) to find you. Protection isn’t paranoia. It’s necessary.

There are so many websites that are scraping the internet and putting your information on the web, easily accessible. It’s scary, honestly.

I signed up for this years ago because there are fewer things more dangerous than being an outspoken and visible Black woman. I don’t play about my protection and this was a starting point.

Here’s how DeleteMe works:

1. You give them your basic info (name, address, emails, etc.)

2. They scan the web to find where you’re exposed

3. They submit removal requests to dozens (sometimes hundreds) of shady data broker sites and weird search engines

4. You get quarterly reports showing what they found, what was removed, and what’s still in progress

5. They keep monitoring all year long so you stay protected, not just today but ongoing

It is such a valuable tool and I’ve told all my folks about it and they’ve signed up.
