Aliases are very practical for security. In case of compromise of the address, it is enough to change alias instead of changing the whole mailbox.
But it would be better than when creating an alias, as soon as a person contacts this alias, that it is replaced by a series of letters and numbers. Thus, it is impossible to compromise the original address. Thus, no risk of spam. Never. I explain my idea...
Example: I can register on Amazon with:
my-email@protonmail.com
But instead I put an alias:
my-email+amazon-1@protonmail.com
And as soon as Amazon contacts me, the email displayed in the inbox becomes:
76Hjf0Jdl682jdf@protonmail.com
This sequence of numbers and letters is unique and assigned only with this unique alias. If I change the alias, the code changes.
Thus, the base address "my-email" will never appear in other people's mailbox, making it impossible to compromise the root email. The alias may be compromised, in which case it is changed.
Because right now, if Amazon sends me an email and I respond, the contact displayed is no longer my-email+amazon-1@protonmail.com but my-email@protonmail.com.
Thus, the "naked" email is found filled. The alias then loses all its meaning.
I hope I have been clear in my explanations.
Thank you for reading, thank you for voting ;-)
And also POS (Proton Operating System) for PC or Mac.
A way to have the more secure and private OS in the world.
On Mac it would be difficult maybe but feasable to change the OS.
I really dream for an OS that do not spy me at all.
To block every Google agents, Facebook agents, all spys on the net...
