My solution to email spam is a second Gmail account. I use this email to sign up for everything, and it forwards to my main account, but all those emails get auto-archived on receipt. That way if I need a password link or something it’s as easy as checking my “All Mail” folder but I never see any of the spam.
- chii 5y agoThis method works to eliminate spam, but it doesn't prevent different services from being able to match your identity together. It also prevents a user from signing up multiple times (tho with gmail, you could use the `+` to generate more unique looking addresses, but it's easily detected and eliminated too...).
