I feel obligated to say that in no way do I condone the actions of Jeffery Epstein and others like him.

    Ya, the main reason I use alias’ at this point is because when an account gets compromised I can just change the email and password. Helps that I can also just disable emails that are only getting mailing lists too.

      Yep! The other side benefits are that if your info gets sold online/leaked/what have you, and you start getting emails from your “bank” at the email you used to sign up for a random browser game in 2018, it’s easier to tell that it’s a scam. Not even that expensive either, I think I pay a total of $56/yr for the domain and the email?

      Only issue is I usually put the month/year in the alias so if something does happen I don’t need to remember if this is the first or third email for a service. If I don’t mark down the email in my password manager (rare, but has happened), I have the fun issue of forgetting my email and password for the account, because idfk when I signed up for this
