I like to try websites out before tying my identity to them. How do you do it? Simplelogin? I honestly won’t manually make a new gmail for every new website I try and I to want the option to see what emails I get.

    only works with very simple scripts though - I'd assume that checking for a '+' in front of the '@' and removing everything inbetween is very simple if your goal is to spam everyone from a data-leak

      That's very true. I cannot attest to the knowledge and skills of potential spammers. However, more common than data leaks are data selling, and I doubt any company would bother to manipulate the email addresses they buy from others.
