I don’t like to give out my fake one either. Wouldn’t want my porn spam to get diluted by COMCAST offers.

Actually you could learn a lot about me and who I am by cross referencing all the places i’ve given my fake address to. Since I don’t want to create a thousand fake addresses, I don’t give that out either for a mere $100

I see, though $100 is not that little.. I like mailhero (mailhero.io) where you can give out unique email adresses (free, but maybe better not for important stuff) but of course it is not very hard to trace.

(It works like this: You have one identifier (eg smith) and then add anythingn before the dot, like [email protected]), so the identifier is the same in all cases.)
