- reconnecting 1y agoThank you. I'm still not sure if this should be mentioned. On the one hand, I don't want to overly promote the tirreno, but on the other hand, when I see an issue such as trial abuse that could be easily resolved, I can't resist. My bad.
- masklinn 1y agoIf you mention the product, even if it’s an absolutely perfect fit, you should definitely disclose the conflict of interest upfront. This is not about overly promoting the product, it’s about making clear that you are promoting your product (or project, doesn’t even have to be a product).
- reconnecting 1y agoNoted with thanks. Will do.

- arp242 1y ago> freshly registered email accounts can be blocked almost in real time. How does it detect if an email account is freshly registered?
- DocTomoe 1y agochances are: checks it against a database of addresses it has seen before (e.g. because they were used to register stuff elsewhere). No such entry, or entries all younger than n days -> 'freshly registered'. Sucks for people who don't use their addresses for just about anything.
- reconnecting 1y agoIt is not a healthy idea to prevent access to a trial solely because of a lack of reputation associated with an email. However, in this specific case, if there is a rotation of numbers at the end of the email, tirreno has rules that detect similar email patterns. Additionally, I assume that registrations are coming from the same IP or network, which should make it simple to detect through platform.
- reconnecting 1y agoWe provide an API to check IP and email reputation.
- reconnecting 1y agoI take my words back! I saw that your company is in Grenoble. Just drop me an email, and I will personally come to your office and help set up tirreno to resolve this trial abuse.
