Agent skill: remove a person's listings from people-search sites and data brokers without paying deletion services. First-party opt-outs, CA DROP when they live in California, a SQLite legal log, a localhost report.

This is not legal advice.

If you are an agent

This repo is the skill. You do not need a human to explain it.

  1. Read AGENTS.md (boot).
  2. Read SKILL.md (playbook).
  3. Start §1. Roster (aliases, addresses, phones, family) is SQLite + /roster. Then run the loop.

Workspace (takedown.db, evidence) goes outside this clone.

python3 scripts/ryd.py init --workspace "$HOME/privacy-takedown"
python3 scripts/ryd.py serve --workspace "$HOME/privacy-takedown"
# report    http://127.0.0.1:8765/
# roster    http://127.0.0.1:8765/roster
# settings  http://127.0.0.1:8765/settings

If you are a human

Paste this URL into your coding agent (Claude, Codex, Pi, OMP, Hermes, OpenClaw, Cursor, Grok, or anything that will clone a repo and read AGENTS.md / SKILL.md):

https://github.com/k7cfo/remove-your-data

Say: remove my data from people-search sites. The agent should ask where you live first. California → DROP first.

Do not fork

Do not publish a fork. Open a pull request here.

We want as many PRs as possible: dead opt-out URLs, new official forms, DROP/GDPR clock corrections, captcha and mailbox gotchas, search queries that actually find listings, notes for a specific agent host. That is how this stays a good open-source skill. GitHub's Fork button is only for sending that PR.

See CONTRIBUTING.md.

Why

Data brokers publish you. Paid “we'll delete you” apps mostly file the same free forms, then charge rent because brokers re-scrape. Some of those brands sit next to the people-search business. This skill is the mop you run yourself.
