    S.B. 362 directs the California Privacy Protection Agency to create a deletion mechanism for data brokers that allows someone to make this request of every data broker with a single, verifiable consumer request. This gives us all a much-needed method to exercise our privacy rights. It also helps us gain better control over our data and makes it easier to mitigate the risks that the collection and sale of personal information create in our everyday lives.

    We need this legislation to start holding these companies accountable.

    The California Delete Act would also strengthen current California law that requires data brokers to register with the state. Specifically, S.B. 362 would require data brokers to report a broader set of information about what data they collect on consumers and strengthen enforcement mechanisms against data brokers who fail to comply with the reporting requirement. Both provisions do important work to shed light on this opaque ecosystem.

    The bill is currently headed to the California Assembly Appropriations Committee. We call on California’s legislature to pass this bill to empower all Californians to gain a better grasp on their own privacy.

*The vast majority of people listed in this database are just “normal” business people, therefore no negative connotation is insinuated nor should misdeeds be assumed based on existing in our business directory. Our underlying goal is exposing misdeeds and fraud, but to accomplish this we often must first identity “honest” business people. This is because of things like similar names, impersonation, copyright infringement, and other reasons. Thus, the vast majority of people in our database are not being accused of anything shady. For this reason, profiles are now “noindexed” by default until comments exist on any given profile, since many of them are unnotable.

DISCLAIMER: ALL INFORMATION ON THIS WEBSITE WAS OBTAINED LEGALLY VIA PUBLIC RECORDS AND WEB PAGES. This public interest website functions as a transparency engine to expose relationships between individuals and entities (e.g. brands and organizations). Under no circumstances do we publish confidential data about an individual such as ID numbers, medical records, health status, or financial information, including contact details such as personal email addresses and phone numbers, residential addresses, or personal media (e.g. photos/videos). If you discover any such information on our website (including in public comments or reviews), please let us know so that it can be removed immediately. (This does not apply to business-related phone/email, office locations, or other contact information that was used as part of a spam/fraud/etc campaign.) We explicity discourage using this internet directory in any effort to harm or harass any individual or entity, regardless of the reason. We also do not accept or solicit payments or other forms of value in exchange for removing or altering pages that are published here. Anyone is allowed to register a free account on Hucksters.net and publish reviews at anytime, as long as they use their real name and abide by our Terms, as well as all relevant laws of the United States and any local jurisdictions. Reviews can be edited or deleted at anytime at the discretion of the review author, and we strongly encourage updating the content whenever appropriate (e.g. if no longer accurate, or if new information exists). Users are also allowed to review themselves. Any comments that do not include the author’s full (real) name will be deleted. By posting on this site (under your real name), you therefore take legal responsibility for your words, and you understand that other people might therefore choose to dispute the nature of your words in a relevant court of law (thus commenters shall not hide behind Section 230). Reviews should be relevant to the subject’s career and not mundane/personal events. We encourage honesty, humility, and good humor, whenever possible.

Be brave! Login now and report any spam, fraud, or censorship you have witnessed. If you don’t say something, then nothing changes.

Legal caution: we fight (and expose) all fraudulent DMCA+ takedown notices submitted against our website. Any agency, freelancer, or lawyer who is party to “takedown” fraud will be aggressively exposed by our team. Please do not assist the scumbags in our directory unless you’re willing to be publicly exposed, thank you.
