There was an article in the news paper today about an organisation that claim to be able to remove information about you from the internet. Reputation Defender site[^] From the site... Our trained and expert online reputation advocates use an array of proprietary techniques developed in-house to correct and/or completely remove the selected unwanted content from the web. This is an arduous and labor-intensive task, but we take the job seriously so you can sleep better at night. We will always and only be in YOUR corner. Article[^] I wonder how they are able to acheive this?

The big question is, if the way to defend my reputation is to hide things that I said ( assuming they could ), is 'defender' the right word ? There's no substitute for remembering the consequences of your actions.

One way would be to dilute and corrupt the online information by posting contradictory information on various websites. Thus in 3-4 months, there'd be so much incorrect data about a person (or organization) that it'd be hard to figure out what's fact and what's fiction.

Yeah thats true, the impression I got from reading the article and the site was that they claim to be able to make it 'disapear' unless its a legal document or a news paper using their propriatry technology. Sounds very fishy to me

Hmm.. Looks like some hackers joined together and floated a company.

Unless they break into the websites, they will not be able to achieve this.

They probably just handle all the spade work for you; all the requests to legit sites to please remove your postings etc.

It would be glorious to see mankind at leisure for once. It is nothing but work, work, work. I cannot easily buy a blank-book to write thoughts in; they are commonly ruled for dollars and cents. A[man], seeing me making a minute in the fields, took it for granted that I was calculating my wages. — business! - I think that there is nothing, not even crime, more opposed to poetry, to philosophy, ay, to life itself, than this incessant business.

True. Therefore it's advisable to not use your real name on the internet unless absolutely necessary. Otherwise you can be profiled and your identity can be stolen. Some internet sites even publish your date of birth ... :wtf::~ :suss:

I remember trying to get Yahoo! to believe that I was PaulMWatson. I had signed up with that name but forgotten the password and all the other details. After a few days of emailing, trying to verify some kind of id I phoned them in the States and tried to convince them that way. No dice, they wouldn't do it. So I said "Fine, just wipe that account and all its data so I can sign up with it again" but that didn't work either. I offered my passport, my bank details, my South African identity document, my driving license and every other identity I had. They wouldn't do it. In the end I had to sign up with a different username and PaulMWatson with all its data still exists on Yahoo!

The same thing happened to me some 5-6 years back(not sure if it was my hotmail or yahoo account), someone had changed my password and with about 10-15 mail correspondance got my password reset. I was just lucky then. The customer service guy actually had access to all my personal information :sigh: to verify all the data. Probably policies have changed and they dont have access to personal information (hope so).

Uh no, they still have access. Otherwise how would they be able to support you? Same as banks, when you phone them up and have to verify personal info.
