Password reset. Services need to identify you in another way to authenticate you that isn't your password.
If you don't want that, use Mailinator and forget about it. It's insurance against stupid support requests is what it is.

They don't need to identify me, they want to identify me. And throwaway emails are not a solution to the problem, they're just workarounds.

They need to have a way to reset passwords for people that scales.

I agree. We're doing this wrong. Airport "free" WiFi wanting to know my date of birth, and cranky weird crap like that.

I do the same, but how long will it be until that's some sort of TSA violation that will get us on a list?
I understand and I'll provide my email address, my JID, my phone number and whatever else I'm willing to provide, if I want someone to contact me. But contact details are technically completely unnecessary to just have an account.
