lexis nexis is a creepiest data aggregator out there. i recall seeing interview with the founder where he’s been bragging about buying hacked stolen databases of the darkweb “until feds take them down”. all your data

and this company is used to validate your tax worthiness.

    I used to work for a giant bank in the fraud department and had full access to lexis Nexis. It was horrifying 15 years ago. It’s gotta be so much worse now.
