When viewing the results of Norton Privacy Monitor, there is an option that asks Do you want to opt out on your own with Privacy Monitor? with the options of Yes or No, This Isn't My Info.
What is the purpose of this option?

All in one place, you can see a list of sites where your information is displayed, find out how to opt-out, review your opt-out requests, and re-visit where your information is found every three months.

Are you talking about Privacy Monitor or Privacy Monitor Assistant?
Privacy Monitor just scans the web and reports back every 3 months to say what it has found on various data broker websites. If you choose to you can then manually apply to the website owners to ask to remove your info.
Privacy Monitor Assistant is an extra charge that will do the work of applying to the websites automatically. Saves you time but costs you extra.
In either case there is no guarantee that the website owners will remove that info and of course they could just create another website with similar info about you. I think it is very annoying but in today's data hungry world this info floats from server to server so good luck with removing it.

In my Norton 360 application it just says Privacy Monitor. Then I click View Results, it shows me all the sites that have my person info, and then I submit the opt out request for Norton to work on my behalf to have the data brokers remove my personal data. I didn't see anything about Privacy Monitor Assistant, but its probably the same thing.
