The consumer data broker Radaris.com has been ordered by a judge to transfer its domains to the plaintiffs following a lawsuit alleging violations of New Jersey's 'Daniel's Law.' This statute mandates the removal of personal information for law enforcement and government officials from commercial databases. Atlas Data Privacy Corp, the plaintiff, successfully argued that Radaris repeatedly ignored removal requests and engaged in deceptive practices, including the use of a fictitious CEO identity and complex corporate shell games involving entities in the Marshall Islands and other jurisdictions. The Lubarsky brothers, identified as the operators behind the site, faced scrutiny for their attempts to evade accountability through legal delays and shifting ownership structures. This ruling marks a significant victory for privacy advocates, as the court-ordered transfer of the radaris.com domain underscores the legal consequences for data brokers that fail to comply with state-mandated privacy protections for sensitive public sector personnel.
