#Windscribe Partners with #Kagi, #Notesnook, #Addy(dot)io, and #Ente to Create a #Privacy-Focused Alliance

https://windscribe.com/blog/windscribe-partnerships/

#Email management, especially for #privacy & #tech minded people, can be a very personal thing. I’ve been refining my email setup over the last couple of years and I think I’ve landed on a system that works well for me. I’m curious how others handle it.

My setup involves three separate email providers, #posteo.de, #tuta.com, and #riseup.net. I also use a custom domain combined with a paid #anonaddy (now just #addy) account.

Tuta is for strictly personal stuff like banking, medical, and government accounts. Secure, no aliases, separate app, fully contained.

For Posteo and Riseup, I use AnonAddy aliases for everything else. Mail forwarded from Addy is encrypted with my PGP keys and decrypted client-side, and both Posteo and Riseup use server-side encryption.

Posteo is for things I actually care about, online accounts, family, friends, etc. Riseup is for online shopping, newsletters, and more disposable accounts (zero inbox).

I’ll admit it’s a bit convoluted, but it makes sense to me and has worked well so far. I’ve considered simplifying it, and maybe I will one day. I don’t need three providers, but I like keeping things isolated.

Periodic update on me checking on projects for #SelfHosting #anonymous #email forwarding services
- #SimpleLogin https://github.com/simple-login/app/ - python, docker, can plug it into OIDC, project owned by ProtonMail
- #Addy https://github.com/anonaddy/anonaddy/ - PHP, docker optional, webserver can pass user in headers, integrating with SSO that way. Less active than above
- #MailX https://github.com/ivpn/mailx - golang, docker, currently no support for external users

Well, now, _this_ is interesting.
I think this is the first time since I started using #Addy everywhere that one of my anonymized addresses has caught somebody doing something "iffy".
#RCN, my internet service provider, gave my email address to a market-research firm, which sent me a completely generic invitation to take an "important survey about your internet service provider" without acknowledging that the survey was paid for by RCN.
This is kind of gross.
#marketing #astroturf

Email with the subject line "Tell us about your experience with your internet service provider", with a block at the top indicating that it was routed through the Addy email forwarding service via an email address described as "rcn.com / astound.com", with this text:

Hello,

trying out addy.io for email aliasing. so i created my account and i got this page. the first two, i get, but the third one? i mean, i won't because why would i, it's kind of the whole point of a service like that but... that's weird to point out, no? like, my first instinct when i read this is: "it's my emails, i'll do whatever the fuck i want!"

this was not something i had in my mind at all, why are you planting seeds of malice and doubts in me #addy? now i'm feeling extra mischievous and i kinda want to do it. :neofox_floof_devil:

...no but seriously though, why does this matter so much?

I just released a new @thunderbird add-on which integrates Addy.io (a.k.a. AnonAddy) directly into the Thunderbird message compose window.
Now when you're writing an email in Thunderbird and you don't want to let the recipients see your real email address, you can easily route the email through Addy to keep it private.
Share and enjoy!

I'm going to create a wiki which let people to report and share the website which block the #addy (#anonaddy) .

Are there any suggestion about the wiki hosting service?
(I am not going to host it myself)

I plan to use the github-wiki, since everyone has a github account(?), and maybe create a google form or something allow guest report website anonymous.

有人有推薦的 wiki 托管服務嗎？
想弄一個基本的讓人可以看到哪些網站已經禁止用 #addy 郵件地址的 wiki。

For some reason, I could not register an account on https://addy.io/ using my phone. But on my desktop computer I was able to register an account with no issues.
