Specs
Removal loop, disclosure cost
Useful because it turns broker removal into a consent-gated local workflow with a deterministic queue, ledger, human fallback digest, and recurring re-checks. It should not be run as OSINT against people who did not authorize it.
The privacy gain is control and auditability. The risk is PII handling: names, addresses, phone numbers, aliases, and emails are still processed locally and disclosed to broker-controlled removal channels when needed.
