I make a habit of

1. Forwarding everything to my free tier google apps for business on my domain

2. Annually logging into my throwaways. it seems if i login to them once a year from home, they dont pull this.

3. do NOT attempt to login to my throwaways from a proxies connection (SSH/SOCKS on a VPS or something like that, which i frequently use at work)

Yeah....its unfortunate.

Currently I may just pay the cost. Or move to a more privacy focused service like ProtonMail and at least give my money to a place I support.
