Just a PSA for those who want to remove their info from these search engines. This article has really useful information on how to get it done. (I spent 20 minutes doing this now tonight instead of posting on DCUM).

How is any of this private information? Remember when the phone book used to have everyone's address and phone number? This has never been considered private.

You could opt-out of the phone book.

Mine says I may have a criminal record, which is untrue and could be damaging.

I emailed and got a response that my information will be deleted in 7-10 days. My profile stated that I have an arrest or criminal record which is absolutely false. Fortunately, they only had my maiden name, so it was less likely to affect me. Either way, I feel better without that information out there.
