▲ ▼ Monitoring Interweb for leaked data
I have found some of my data on pastebin during a casual web search and had to take it down.
When our data is leaked on the Internet, by the time we come to know about it's often too late and it's usually already been shared widely on the Internet. So taking down the data becomes very hard or even impossible.
A service which monitors the Interweb, Dark web for our data and alert us in time would be invaluable for the victims of leaked data.
Hey, would this work for your needgap?

You could also search this "monitor web for leaked data" in google and it turns up some more results
Unfortunately not, it's for online account leaks and I'm talking about data on my computer.
Could you elaborate what you mean by "data on my computer"? Perhaps give a couple concrete examples?
Sure.
Say there is a MyFinancialDocument.pdf in my /Documents folder and it ends up in pastebin or any other website as 2343933.txt.
