Nowadays, it seems like everyone on the web wants your email. When you give your email address to a site in order to log in or just get some info, many companies will take that as a free pass to do anything from relentlessly spamming you with newsletters to selling your email address to advertisers, who will in turn track you relentlessly.

An interesting linked article below but worth also noting you want to set up with a company that will be providing this service still in a few years time. I recall over two decades back I was using the Bigfoot relay service and one day the e-mail relay service just disappeared. That left me with some major issues with changing my login passwords at other sites, as back then they e-mailed a password reset link to you… That said, any e-mail service can disappear ;-)
