>Can I do a GDPR request for the data about myself? How? And send it where? It's unclear who owns this server
Could the server owner (Google) have to fulfill the request? Probably not, but interesting to think about.

#14Yet another Elasticsearch server wide open. This is going to make the flurry of open mongodb servers look trivial.

#17I've been wanting to do some social graph experimentation on it (small scale - say 1000 people near me) but concluded I probably couldn't scrape enough via raw scraping without freaking out their anti-scraping. (And API is a non-starter since that basically says everything is verboten).

It's weird because for oxydata you have to contact their sales team... but peopledatalabs has an opt out form. https://www.peopledatalabs.com/opt-out-form People Data Labs privacy policy: 3.

An online opt-out system is too easy for them. I want each one to get a phone-book sized list of opt-outs every month.
And the same for data requests. Someone that curates the data collectors, and sends them requests every month.
Do you know which country’s “do not call” list I want to be on? All of them! Get my number on the AU list, the UK list, the DE list...
Let’s crash the system.
