Can I delete my data from third party websites?

Hello everyone, I have a question.

Situation: once a domain was registered, whois details were filled in, then the registration deadlines expired, the domains were released. According to the registrar/RIPN whois data for these domains, it is empty.
But, there are a couple of websites that still store this information. Although no one agreed to this.

Is it possible to delete data from third-party sites that collect this data without my consent? How can I do that? If anyone has/had experience, please share.
I tried to find forms for deletion, feedback contacts - nothing.

There is no anonymity. Respect for privacy too. Just deal with it. You won't do anything about it.
At one time, I diligently tried to clean out all the information about myself from the Internet (not only postal addresses, but also my full name with a residence permit and date of birth).
I actively wrote letters to the owners of such resources, some responded and deleted (to my surprise, there were most of them), some responded and sent, and some were completely silent.
However, to my great regret, I found that as information about me is deleted from one resource, new resources appear. And in general they circulate there in a completely unknown way. And since no one cleans up information about me from leaked databases (and it’s useless to go to court: leaked databases will not be returned, only journalists will immediately trumpet all the Internet about the lawsuit, and then you won’t wash off at all, and the information will generally multiply many times) , then complaining to site owners is useless. Such sites are still temporary, and next time everything will happen again.
At some point, I got tired of all this, and I just don’t use real names / emails / links to my own resources anywhere on the network. And in general, I try to leave as little information about myself on the Internet as possible.

In theory, you can write to the hoster that such and such a site violates the law on the protection of personal data. Hosters should be more responsive than site owners.

To prevent your personal data from multiplying on the Internet
, make all social network data available only to friends;
- domain registration - only private registration (hiding data in whois),
- do not indicate your home address, phone number, real date of birth and main email anywhere in the public domain.
- if you desperately need to specify a phone number, use virtual numbers (from zadarma.com, for example, or any other VoiP provider).
- set up your profile in social networks in such a way that it is impossible to search for your name from the outside (i.e. your profile is blocked for search engines, but search within the social network is possible).

What sites?
Some Huis scanners make a living by storing a history of changes, but the delete data button leads to the payment page via PayPal. And such extortion has existed for more than a day.
