An AGPL Agent Skill Files Data-Broker Opt-Outs Free, Arguing Paid Deletion Services "Charge Rent Because Brokers Re-Scrape"
remove-your-data, posted to Show HN on 2026-08-29 and sitting at 25 points and 36 stars, is an agent skill that removes personal listings from people-search sites using first-party opt-out forms and California's DROP program, keeping a SQLite legal log and generating a localhost report. Its README makes the pricing argument directly: "Paid 'we'll delete you' apps mostly file the same free forms, then charge rent because brokers re-scrape." It is AGPL-3.0-or-later with a network-service copyleft clause, which is a deliberate block on someone re-wrapping it as the subscription it was built to undercut.
