https://justdeleteme.xyz/ and https://simpleoptout.com/, there was this one website that had a pre-filled email template too, and it'd remind you to follow up with support, etc. Even while this isn't for data brokers, it's good to have these just in general.

Do any of those databroker data deletion services actually work? Are they worth it?

Imagine if they get hacked. They would never tell..or they would lose their whole customer base. Although they would still have their data I guess..
