If paying Mozilla, a well respected privacy focused organization, $9/month to assist you in managing your privacy is too much, don't fret, you have a couple of free options:

  1. Spend hundreds of hours tracking down your own info and manually submitting opt-out requests. Here's a starting point: https://github.com/yaelwrites/Big-Ass-Data-Broker-Opt-Out-List

  2. Stop caring about Privacy and let data brokers do whatever they want with your information.
