The best way to protect your privacy is through multiple layers of protection. If one fails you aren't completely exposed.
1. Get a mailbox (eg UPS Store) and use that instead of your home address. This is worth the $5-15/m cost for package delivery alone. No worrying about someone stealing packages from your home while you're at work. Privacy is a bonus.
2. Use a phone service like Google Voice to protect your phone number.
3. Add WHOIS privacy on top of that if you really feel you need it.
Email protection isn't really an issue. I use domains@[mydomain] and all the spam I get is filtered.
- toomuchtodo 12y agoIf you don't need package delivery, and don't care about mail showing up, use general delivery. It's free at your local post office. http://about.usps.com/news/national-releases/2012/pr12_125.htm http://about.usps.com/news/national-releases/2012/pr12_125.h... If you have been displaced and don’t have a permanent address, General Delivery service allows you to pick up your mail for up to 30 days at a designated Postal identified location in your current community. Make sure senders of your mail use the ZIP Code for the area’s designated Post Office. The ZIP+4 will indicate General Delivery. To find the Post Office that handles General Delivery in any area, call 1-800-ASK-USPS (1-800-275-8777) and request “Customer Service.” An example of a properly-formatted General Delivery address looks like this: JOHN DOE GENERAL DELIVERY ANYTOWN, NY 12345-9999 EDIT: I use it as a /dev/null physical address, as I have no need for paper mail.
