Have any current protonmail users experienced denial of service from online providers solely because of their email address?

  Not yet at around a year worth of usage. I use a custom .space address which I thought would bring its own issues, but hasn't. I have spf, dkim, and dmarc setup with it as well.

  Yupp. My account at a particular website was terminated. They pointed to their TOS, where "anonymous" address are not allowed. Wasn't even given the chance to keep the account and change the email to an "acceptable" one.

    What service? Name and shame.

      Just a guess - private trackers often do this. Back in the day I got banned at couple of places because of a riseup email.

    why do they say it's anonymous? I use proton, it's encrypted but not anonymous. (unless you used the hash option someone else posted (I didn't know that was a feature)

  I recommend that any user of hosted mail registers their own domain. 1) No negativity towards your provider reflects on you 2) If your mail provider locks you out you can move to another Just do a little mental simulation right now of what would happen if gmail or ms/hotmail/etc. locked your account.
