The list that the repo maintains is for services that can provide burner or anonymous emails.

You can sign up for Proton Mail anonymously, as demonstrated by a frequent contributor to that repo in issue #414.

Therefore, it seems appropriate for it to be on that list, as annoying as that is.

I'd hope that site providers wouldn't just summarily ban any domains on that list but I understand why they may take that shortcut to reduce spam/abuse if they don't have adequate resources to handle it other ways.

You can sign up on Outlook anonymously too. Look video in this comment

Yes, that's why I proposed to add Outlook to the list too?

Mozilla provides a similar service I believe?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Yes. Aliases is not disposable mails. Moreover SimpleLogin (Proton aliasing service) forbids to use it as disposable in ToS

That video doesn't seem to have actually fully completed the registration process at Outlook though.

You can try by yourself (without “grey” ip)

I have a bad feeling that's what a lot of site providers will do, and you can almost guarantee the big tech data brokers will push them to do so, especially Google/Gmail. They will own our lives, by force if necessary.
