Ask HN: Good posts/resources on how user data is sold?
2 by mavsman | 1 comments on Hacker News.
My friend just sent me a link to usphonebook.com which apparently has some accurate info on people's addresses and phone numbers (including cell). She asked me how this is possible. I remember reading several good articles on HN about how data is acquired and bought, etc but I couldn't find any links to them after searching. Anyone have good resources explaining this?
