News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

Actually quite often. I'm very surprised users do not use unique email addresses when contacting different companies or vendors to protect against spam if one of your email addresses gets leaked after the company is hacked.

For example, I would use email address A for company A, B for company B and so forth. If company A ever gets hacked, I can just block any emails going to email A and not worry about playing whack-a-mole with the 100s of email addresses that spammers will use.

I can also use the email addresses as a way to auto filter or apply inbox rules.

I'm very surprised users only use 1 email address at a time especially if your email gets leaked once to spammers, you have to start dealing of spam or hoping your email solution has very very good anti-spam measures.

For me, this is just a normal usage of an email client.

I don't believe Gmail can do what the parent is looking for per this Gmail article: https://support.google.com/mail/answer/22370?hl=en

In Thunderbird, I can directly edit the "From" field to whatever value I want when I send the email.

I can make it a random value such as "[email protected]" and it will happily try to send it. The email address can also be from a domain I don't even own.

From the Gmail, docs, I have to manually go to settings, enroll the additional email address, then manually have to select the "From" address from the dropdown menu. I cannot put an arbitrary email address (including arbitrary domain). This will have to be done each time I want to have a different from header which means if I want to have a randomly generated email used as the "From" address for every one of my emails, it's not going to be easy in the Gmail interface.

As it states in your source

Wrapping a HEVC file in a container does not automatically void any patents of the contained file. Otherwise, anyone can shove any patent encumbered file format in a ".zip" container (or any container/wrapper) and avoid any patent or licensing issues.
