My agent sent 30 privacy requests. Then my email account was shut down.

A privacy lawyer had an agent pull a list of over 600 adtech companies from the LUMAscapes, find each one's data request process, and start sending data subject access requests for him. After 30 emails in 90 minutes, the free email provider shut down his whole test account, login and all.

This one went wrong. Read what happened so you don’t hit the same problem.

How it works

  1. Agent pulls a list of 600 plus adtech companies
  2. Finds the DSAR process for each
  3. Surfs the web and enters the email where needed
  4. Sends requests, 30 emails in 90 minutes
  5. The email provider shuts down the entire account

Why it’s worth knowing

The requests were lawful and throttled, and there was no no-bot rule. The email provider still killed the whole account after 30 sends.
