I'm newish to the privacy world, and thus have been... lax in prior years. So my ads are still very targeted. I've seen stuff about Incogni, and their whole deal, and wanted to ask y'all if it's legit/worth it?

About Incogni... To use their service you will have to give them a lot of your personal data which they will use to remove your data from other websites. But if you want to use their service you would need to trust them.

Personally, I don't trust them and I think it is better to start adopting privacy friendly services right away and stop worrying about the data other companies already have on you. Prevent what you can from now on.

Fair enough, thanks!
