- r2b2 6y agoIf you give your personal email address to hundreds of services online one of them is bound to sell or leak your email. By using Owl Mail (or Firefox Relay, etc.) addresses everywhere, you reduce your attack surface to one security fastidious company. And, even if Owl Mail (or Firefox Relay, etc.) were to experience a data breach, at least it would greatly increase the effort required to match emails to your identity. To really protect yourself, use a double relay! External -> Relay 1 -> Relay 2 -> Your Inbox Then you will have some serious resilience :D
- garysahota93 6y agoOo, I like that! Really good point there. Also, I think one thing you should look into as a natural evolution is promoting the use of auto-generated, secure passwords unique to each relay address.
