Great video! I used some of your techniques to dig up dirt on a rival at my work who was harrassing and denigrating me just to make himself feel better. I determined the location of his apartment and the names of his family.

I soon discovered in "detective mode" that his son had been arrested numerous times. The next day I went to work, I threw that issue into his face, and he turned RED with so much embarrassment. Now he can't talk down to me or even look me straight in the eye. :)

It is easy to find dirt on people in America

But what about finding dirt of people in New Zealand?

The fact that his son has a rap sheet is what made him show a little bit more respect for me. The power of such information can literally damage a person's reputation in the workplace and blackmail him into obedience.

Nobody wants people to know that their son or daughter has a rap sheet and that some stranger at work has to bring up the issue IN FRONT OF EVERYBODY! It's obviously embarrassing.
