do anon use email aliases?use case?
>>108351010Gmail once allowed the user to create aliases for registering to sites so that when you received spam you could know which site had sold your information to advertisers, but of course that was short lived.example:main: poop@gmail.comsign up for twitch: twitch.poop@gmail.comThen you would spam for twitch.poop and know who betrayed you.I don't actually use email now-a-days except for 2FA. I am pretty much living in incognito mode until my demise.
>>108351010You can just prefix your e-mail with whatever+ and then filter based on that.porn+anon@domain.tldgames+anon@domain.tldthey will all arrive at anon@domain.tld
>>108351120>>108351127Advertisers have an email normalizer algo now. Sadly these methods don't really work anymore.
>>108351120It still does. For example if your email is anon@gmail.com you can use a.non@gmail.com or anon+gay@gmail.com for the same purposes you described
>>108351010I use them to talk to mentally ill girls off /r9k/. I'm pretty much the only one on that entire board who knows how to use aliases though. Everyone else seems to just create over 9000 throwaway emails like retards.
>>108351253Admittedly, I haven't tried since it stopped working for me about 6 years ago. It doesn't matter, for me at least, since I no longer sign up for things.

>>108351010>use case?Ensuring structure and appropriate routing of email correspondence in organizations with more than a handful of staff members. Can't imagine how fucking annoying my day would be if I couldn't create email aliases for the cretins who pay me to manage their IT services and overall infrastructure.
>>108351010disposable email addresses are nice when you want to mostly hide who you are
>>108351010>make an alias for just one service>start getting spam on that address>now you know who sells emails
