What's the word on DeleteMe?

I have been able to keep a relatively low profile online for a long time. In fact, other than my age range, none of my information has been easily available online.....until very recently. I search my name periodically to check for this stuff, and sure enough, my name, home #, address, social, cell #, etc is all online now. This is within the past month, and I have no idea how it happened since I have been clean for every year since the internet came about. I have also noticed Google Maps just started displaying my home address when I open it. It never used to track my movements, and now it does. No settings have changed.

Going through the process to remove yourself from all of these sites is a major PITA, so I am thinking about using a service called DeleteMe to do it for me. These are actual people doing the process. Have yall used or heard of them? You basically pay for a year of protection. The only social media presence I have is TD, and I cannot be easily connected to my account here.

Here is what they do:
