DeleteMe is 30 percent off for Black Friday — and it’s the most effective anti-spam tool I’ve ever used

We like our hardware here at Engadget, from high-end gaming headsets to powerful heaters to the fabric shaver you never knew you needed. For Black Friday, we’ve found great deals on all of it. However, since I ascended to the software plane years ago and now swim in the digital aetherium, my favorite product of the year is an app — and not even one you use yourself.
DeleteMe will boost your quality of life, no matter where you are or what you’re doing, by sharply reducing the amount of spam you receive on every channel. From now until December 5, it’s offering 30 percent off all subscriptions with the coupon code BFCM30OFF25.

Chances are you’ve seen at least one public-facing “people search” site. You know the ones: they usually have names like 411.info or Find.people, and you can type in a person’s name and find all the info the site has been able to scrape on them. If you search your own name, it’s hard to avoid immediately running to the kitchen to make yourself a tinfoil hat.
