If they own houses that is public info.
You can find out someone's home address from their email address. These brokers are out of control.

The suspect faces several charges of second-degree murder.
This baffles me. Looking up your fucking victim's addresses isn't enough evidence of premeditation to qualify for first-degree charges?
If he was left-wing, this would be prosecuted (and propagandized by the media) as terrorism.

The last major American privacy law, the 1988 Video Privacy Protection Act was passed in 1988 by Reagan. The only reason it happened is that politicians realized that their privacy was affected. Robert Bork was going through his Supreme Court confirmation hearings and someone got a hold of the tapes he had rented and published them.
Politicians were worried about their own personal privacy, so they passed a new law to protect the privacy of people's video tape rentals.
Maybe the fact that the targets here were politicians will mean that something will happen with data privacy, for once.

While true, the lookup is the address to the owner, not the other way around. Compiling the information to show querying by person should be illegal.
But did you think about the shareholders

Probably not.

Which, funnily enough, would also qualify the murders as first-degree under Minnesota state law: https://www.revisor.mn.gov/statutes/cite/609.185

In Minnesota, a grand jury is required for first degree. This is just a placeholder charge until they can get a jury.
That's what I figured after thinking about it, that there had to be some procedural reason for it.

he wouldve been charged already, much like with mr luigi was. since he targeted the protected ":class"

There is no allegedly, the dude was a total boomer and literally wrote out instructions on how to dox someone in his notebook which are shown in the federal complaint against him
Literally outlines which sites are free, which ones have free trials, etc
Like you you would think he would just use a text document or bookmarks or something

Well considering he chose to use a pyro-mechanical firearm, instead of things like social/political/legal/economical tools to accomplish his goal, seems to check out lol

They'll pass a law that only benefits them. Our data will still all be up for grabs.

It's insane how many there are. I've been using Experian to find and remove my info from these sites and there are literally hundreds it's done so far.

Never heard that story before.

I guarantee you none of your data is actually deleted. Experian is a surveillance capitalism data broker. They're selling both the virus and the snake oil to "cure" it.

Just like he did with the eggs!

He's white.
Luigi is white and they’re trying to send him to the gallows.
I think him being conservative is the factor here.
Although I agree if he weren’t white he would be treated way worse…

My county lets you search property tax records by owner name. It is trivial to find someone.

It's actually really easy to get your info off these sites, as they have to delete it upon your request. Just take 20 minutes, pull up any random Top 20 Background Check Sites list, locate the specific pages with your info, and go to town with those deletion requests. (There should be a link to a deletion form on the page or a link to submit a request via email, at least that's how it was when I did this five years ago.)

I'm only talking about those scummy sites that have your info if you web search your own name. Corporations have been buying and selling my info for decades, at this point.
