Won’t websites just blacklist this domain from creating accounts?
- decrypt 5y agoIt's rare though. I have been using alias services like Anonaddy and SimpleLogin for nearly two years. I have seen only on website block SimpleLogin, and it was a Pixelfed instance. I simply signed up on another Pixelfed instance as these are federated. These alias companies also have multiple domains, so in a way these blocks can be worked around.
- igetspam 5y agoAbout a year after Gmail launched, commercial services blocked the domain for account registration, in droves. I remember seeing errors about using "free" email services. It hasn't happened yet me in a long time but I also use a wildcard address and a personal domain for most things now. (My gmail account is regularly blocked but that's becaue people assume it's fake and they use it for testing... I get all the spam.)
- Freak_NL 5y agoMailinator's domains are pretty much all blocked in lots of cases. There are lists filled with such domains that services often seem to use.
- pmontra 5y agoMailinator is very famous. I never heard about the other services in this sub thread though. It could be that they are allowed because few people know that they exist.
- makosdv 5y agoSome probably will.
- otherme123 5y agoI've find a good amount of sites that do not blacklist, but whitelist maybe four or five domains (gmail, hotmail, outlook...) and any others not allowed.
