I have “disappeared” myself, and I did it by keeping anything that has my address at an outdaed one, and handling all payments online with prepaid cards or stored value accounts.

When I run my name it comes up with an address from 25 years ago, which the data brokers still think I live at.

I don’t have home Internet, I use a repeater to aim at the store down the street and use their wifi, so no need to put my name ona bill. This is also helped with renting a room instead of an apartment as you pay a portion of the bill which is held in someone else’s name, not in your own.

That’s a major issue, as even when they say they don’t sell your data all of the utility and service companies have “Partners” who do sell it, and while there are supposed to be ways to avoid this they are often things you have to file for after you have an acount and the data has already been sold so preventing it from being handed off again si pointless since it is already in the pacakge their “partner” sells to brokers.
