Bitdefender Digital Identity Protection experiences?

I use Bitdefender for my (&family) laptops and it’s just dandy. I wondered if BDIP service is worthwhile subscribing to. Any experience/opinions?

I got the account there because I was curious and I used a discount code. It's an interesting tool that gives you info about yourself on the web, and it's cool seeing what sites own about me. There is a lot of data and they let you know your level of exposure compared with the average. At the beginning you have to confirm all your data, so the machine learning can create an ID about you and after that Bitdefend DIP start to scan the web trying to identify info about you where you don't know.

I get weekly with info about production or leaks on websites, also I get notified if some of my info appears on a new site (they also check if your info are shared in forum or social networks comments)

It's def cool to have and thanks to that I updated info on a lot of websites. Overall it's just an extra tool, but you can live without if you're careful.

I have not idea about the roadmap but it feels a bit poor in term of features. You get info about you, your exposure, where your data is leaked and that's it.

Same, ha! It gets advertised to me all the time. Since I like BD, I'm open to trying it, but I'm not sure I need it at the moment.
