This tutorial’s use is to teach users how they can keep their real email address safe using an alias email, whether it’s for signing up on some “not-really-trustworthy-sites” or simply for safety.

I believe this feature is also being introduced to apple devices.

Yeah, they have a new iCloud premium-like subscription which includes email adress hiding. Nonetheless, I still prefer Firefox Replay as iCloud alwas charges something.

Thanks, glad this helped you stay safe online!

Additionally, for Apple users, you can upgrade to iCloud+ for as little as $1.29 CAD.

iCloud+ users have an option to hide their email.

Whenever prompted to create an account there is an option to hide your email.

Additionally for $1.29/month you can get 50 GB iCloud storage.

OneDrive would be better, but in this case iCloud would be great for email privacy.

At the end of the day they’re both good services.
