For 9 months the privacy monitor found 6 pieces of my real information for sale. I was going to get the privacy assistant. Then it asked me if I was related to someone that I didn't know, so I said no. Now all of a sudden, none of my information is for sale on the web. How does who I know make my real information disappear?
The only thing I can think of is that the information that had been detected was somehow connected to the person you were asked if you knew. As you said you did not know that person, the information for sale was deemed to not be yours.
Did the notice say what information was for sale?
