That’s a use case for aliases, catching if any company or service gives out your email to be abused by advertisers and whatnot. I tried looking for stories but didn’t find any, I wonder if you have any to share.

    I’ve caught a few, usually the email gets leaked in a data breach (ie. Adobe got breached a while back, so I just block all email to [email protected]). Surprisingly I don’t really catch a lot of companies reselling mailing lists, it’s mostly data breaches that you can find on haveibeenpwned.
