Removing Your Information from NeighborWho

The neighborhood search site called NeighborWho may be putting your privacy at risk. Here’s how to remove your personal information from the site. 

 

In the world that we are living in right now, many of us don’t have time and are not interested to know more about the people we share the street with or the people that are living in the same neighborhood. More than 20 years ago people used to go to their neighbor’s house so they can borrow some minor but urgent things instead of going to the local store.

 

Right now many of us don’t even know the names of our neighbors, not to mention some even more private details. This modern world and our daily obligations are restricting our freedom and we ignore some basics so we can save some time.

 

Some people used this situation and are providing services where you can check details about certain people without bothering to meet them in person.

 

One of the websites that are offering services of this kind is NeighborWho, this service is able to provide its users with detailed information about individuals just by using the name or address in the search box.

Some of the records are including, marriage licenses and divorce records, property data, government records, birth and death certificates, and tax records, contact info, and are acting as a digital address directory.
