> There are many companies in the business of scoring consumers. The challenge is to identify them. Once you do, the instructions on getting your data will probably be buried in their privacy policies. Ctrl-F “request” is a good way to find it. Most of these companies will also require you to send a photo of your driver’s license to verify your identity. Here are five that say they’ll share the data they have on you.

1. List your new consumer scoring company and an address for requesting your personal records.

2. Collect personal data supplied as verification for personal record requests.

3. Send personal record requests to other companies holding actual consumer data.

4. You are now in business, ready to sell consumer data!

Not a great business plan as yet - "Zeta Global [...] told me that 10 people have requested their data so far" - but maybe you can be a first mover here.

That number might not move if Zeta's form never sends the confirmation email, which, thus far, seems to be the case.
