Do You Spokeo?


There’s this new website called Spokeo.com and it is an information aggregator like Zabasearch. That means the site gathers public information about people and puts them together, so when you search someone’s name, it shows personal details already previously publicly available from different companies or websites about that person. You can also look up telephone numbers, email addresses, and it can scan your email contact list (I haven’t tried that one yet). Check out the site and discover what you may or may not know about about yourself: http://www.spokeo.com/ . Of course if you want your name deleted from their database, you can click Privacy on the bottom of the website’s page and put in your request. However, your public information will still exist from where Spokeo found it from, and that’s an altogether another story. You can get more information about Spokeo here: http://www.snopes.com/computer/internet/spokeo.asp .Oh, by the way, I think the database of the company only covers U.S residents.
