By the way, I was shocked how much data TMF were recording (someone asked for their data to be returned and it turned out they knew just about every link clicked over decades)

Yeah that was me. You can request the data at https://preferences.fool.com/privacy. TMF sent me a file with all my activity. In total tens of thousands of entries since 2015, with every page I visited on the boards, together with exact time stamp, IP address and location that I visited from. A rather complete travel profile could be made from the data. Not that it would be of much use to anyone, but still'

I don't know what shocked me more, the data, or that I opened on average 19 pages on TMF every day during 7 years.

Using the same link above you can request to have your data and account deleted. Which is what I did. They deleted the account after a few days. I suppose they deleted the data, too.
