I figured you wouldn’t touch it, since you’re a legitimate business and all. But … as previous employees at such data broker companies there must be some strategies that individuals could take to do so :)
To your second point about introducing "noise" into your profile at data brokers to make it more useless. That's an interesting idea, but unfortunately, not something we would touch at Operty. Data brokers have hundreds of upstream partners who supply them with information to enrich their profile on you. We send opt out requests to data brokers, and nothing else.
