GARBO + HELPING SURVIVORS

Garbo's Mission

Garbo is a tech nonprofit on a mission to help proactively prevent harm in the digital age through technology, tools, and education.

Garbo’s educational content has reached millions of individuals and their background check technology found 1 in 6 searches revealed someone with a history of harm. However, in August 2023, they chose to shut down their background check technology due to ongoing problems with public records, threats from bad actors, and a lack of real support from technology platform partners. They recently released their guidebook, “The Essential Guide to Online & IRL Safety” which is designed to help people learn how to identify bad actors and protect themselves in the digital age.
