This is why I have a few spare email addresses that I don't log into. They have no personal information about me (most of these mailboxes were last accessed on computers I don't have anymore or via the public library).

I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve had a faster mobile connection than (for example) hotel WiFi. So I’ve just given up trying. That said, things may have improved in the last couple of years...
