Judge transfers Radaris and related data-broker domains in New Jersey privacy case over law-enforcement data removal requests

A judge ordered Radaris.com and more than a dozen related people-search domains transferred to the plaintiffs after a lawsuit alleged the company ignored legal requests to remove personal information about New Jersey law-enforcement officials and their families. The case centers on New Jersey’s Daniel’s Law, which allows protected officials to demand complete removal of their data from commercial data brokers and imposes fines of $1,000 per violation. The article says plaintiffs accused Radaris and affiliated entities of evading accountability through shifting ownership claims and offshore shell-company changes.
Why it matters: This matters to public officials, their families, and anyone concerned about data-broker exposure of home addresses and other personal details that can enable harassment, stalking, or targeting. It is a notable enforcement action against a major people-search network and signals that organizations handling personal data can face serious consequences for ignoring lawful deletion requests.
