The privacy protection service Incogni has launched a 55% discount promotion to help users erase their personal information from the internet. According to a report by ZDNet, this is a practical solution to prevent personal data from being exploited by data brokers and spam callers.
Background
The leakage and public sale of personal data on the internet is becoming a major headache for technology users. According to ZDNet, data brokers continuously harvest contact details, browsing history, and other personal information to sell to third parties. As a direct consequence, users are constantly bombarded with spam calls and annoying marketing messages every day. Proactively requesting data deletion from hundreds of these brokers is an incredibly complex and time-consuming process if done manually.
Developments
Against this backdrop, Incogni has emerged as a tool that automates the process of sending opt-out requests to data-collecting organizations. ZDNet regards it as one of the most effective services in this space. With the 55% off promotion, users now have the chance to access this privacy solution at a more budget-friendly price, allowing them to quickly scrub their personal information from public databases.
Why it matters
For users in Vietnam, spam calls and phone scams are also growing increasingly rampant and sophisticated. Although Incogni primarily operates in Western markets, deep discounts on privacy protection tools are a positive sign that raises awareness about information security. Users can consider similar services or capitalize on this deal to minimize the risk of having their personal phone numbers and emails exposed online.
