Harvard Business Services has a mail forwarding service that includes junk mail filtering and it works. They even scan the mail and send it via email which means you have access to legitimate mail wherever you are. You can then request the original hard copy to be forwarded if needed.
Even if none of the above were true and they blindly forwarded all mail, it would still be helpful because at any time you could stop the mail forwarding without stopping all mail at your real address. So for example, if you got overwhelmed with junk mail from your forwarded address, you could just stop the mail forwarding service and your family would still be able to send you mail directly. It’s similar to Apple’s Hide My Email but for snail mail. When you want to disassociate from an address, you just delete it.
Now, of course, as with most things in life, this can be used for good or for evil. Anonymity both causes and solves problems. The question is, is it a human right? I believe it should be, but maybe not if you hold certain positions of power. Defining that is tricky, though.
I think most people would trade in their anonymity for fortune or fame, at least until they had experienced it, but not everyone would.
