    I really don't think there is a need for a photo of your house and address and other personal info. that is on these type of web sites . I was shocked to see a photo of my house on this web site . I took it off very quickly . It was a little hard to do but i WAs able to do it. I wonder how many other web sites have this kind of personal info out there ?

    Sucks that ppl have easy access to others personal stuff. Google Maps also has a pic of your home, your neighborhood at that. There's also a website called ZabaSearch.com, pretty much the same thing as this Spokeo.com site.

    I'm not on there, but my brother, mom, and dad are on there. I wasn't expecting to be on there because I am a minor, but my brother in younger than I am! I don't know how he is on there, lol.

    Nothing is safe or sacred anymore. There is no true privacy anymore. If you fill out your information anywhere, even the most seemingly innocuous places, sooner or later it will end up on sites like this. The only way to stop it is to move way off the grid.

    I found myself on this site--but they had my zodiac sign wrong, which means they may not have my birthdate.

    I found my folks, but the picture of their house was wrong and it said they were in a 50 unit condominium.

    It makes me wonder what these folks are really up to with this website...they could be phishing for information as they go along.

    They don't make it easy to find out where to get your name removed either. To do so if you info is on there, click on one of the hot buttons and it will take you to the screen where you have to pay to get more info. Then scroll down until you see 'privacy' in really small print. You will need the URL from the page with your info to complete.
