How to find and delete old accounts with Yorba
Most people have more than 220 online accounts. Do you know how many you have?
Why digital footprints are so hard to manage
Recently, we talked about the problem with managing your digital footprint: it’s constantly growing, and it’s really hard to track down all the accounts you’re associated with. There are countless apps that try to do this for you, but many of them have been sued for improperly using your data; others simply don’t have the functionality to help you find and delete those accounts.
But the worst offender of all is that even if you remember which accounts you signed up for, you have no idea which ones sold your data. It can be really hard to track and harder to get rid of all those accounts.
Yorba makes it easy.
