CoreLogic defended its practices as legal, saying it’s too difficult to verify consent or anonymise personal data.

And this is what needs changing. It should not be legal for them to have it, nor for anyone to give it to them, in the first place.

If you've ever signed up to win something (a car, a vacation, a pretty watch, free food for a year), you've given them your data and they just add that together with what they can scrape off the internet and sell it to anyone who wants it in a lot of cases.

If you have a phone number, thats how.

If you don't have a phone number, its much harder for then to get your info
