r/LifeProTips on Reddit: LPT: Google has a free tool that will remove your personal info from searches
March 21, 2024 -

After seeing that horrifying post in r/texts yesterday (IYKYK, 😵) I remembered there is a great feature Google has called "Results about you" that you can access with an active Google account. This will search for your full name, address, phone number, and email and if results are found, share them with you so you can request to remove them. All of my requests have been approved within a day or two. Definitely recommend people to look into this, as it's honestly horrifying how easily it is to find out people's personal information.

EDIT: here's a guide from Google on how to do this.

EDIT 2: As some people in the post are pointing out, this may only work in the U.S currently.

Google "Results About You" Tool - Bogleheads.org
April 20, 2025 - It returned 16 results, all with my name and about half with my address and half with my old landline phone number, all publicly available information. The majority was on aggregating sites that advertise as finding people you know. I guess it wasn't surprising nor alarming news. Of course, "publicly available" these days often really means on Google.
