For those dark pattern email boxes I like entering things like admin@[website that's serving a dark pattern mailbox] or marketing@website because 50% of the time it just gives me whatever without any trouble and the other 50% of the time I clear cookies and consider if I really need whatever they're gating behind harvesting my email...
That is a great alternative to [email protected], I'll also feel less bad about accidentally hitting a real email.
I never expected anyone to guess my address. Thanks a lot.
This is such a great idea lol
haha nice. I’ll try that next time
I like [email protected] (sorry to the admin, it means nowhere, I assume it's like /dev/null) Just like everyone should be using 01/01/1970 for a birthdate
Please stop doxxing me. JK but I use 01/01/1980 for some reason.
