  > If we could trust companies, we could give them our real emails. I'm assuming you realize that there is more than one company, and that one can trust different companies to different extents. I trust DDG more than I trust most other companies. I trust DDG more than I trust Amazon, and I've given Amazon my email--a decision I sometimes regret!

    If the approach DDG proposes would be to "Trust us with your email rather than company B", that would be a fair argument. But DDG proposes "Trust us with all your browsing data, including your private emails, your bank statements, all your passwords, everything you read and write rather than manually type the temp email". To me that seems pretty extreme.

      That is not exactly what they propose. That is, however, the proposition, because of the way browser makers bundle permissions. I suggest that DDG proposes, "Trust us with access to many things, most of which we promise we won't even look at, none of which we will ever keep." Given that the extremeness is the result of browser makers, I think DDG has earned my trust. Your mileage may vary.
