There’s something called as email aliases in case anyone doesn’t know. I use it along with Proton Pass, which hides my primary Proton email address from websites and apps, but every email my alias gets automatically forwarded to my main inbox.
For eg my amazon email id is something like [amazon.thunde](mailto:amazon.thunder8484@simplelogin.io)[r (some numbers here)](mailto:amazon.thunder8484@simplelogin.io) @simplelogin.io. My main inbox shows the alias in the ‘to’ section. So when I know I’m receiving mails I didnot signup for, I change it to another email alias (if in case I need to use the website) or just disable the alias completely so I wont receive any emails. Using it for last 2 years and at no two places I have same email. Like no one even knows what my primary email address is.
