    The service you have found, Monitor, is for getting notifications about information that has been leaked from companies data breaches. The list you have is a list of actions that you can do to minimize the impact (“resolve”).

    I think you were trying to use Firefox Relay, but I can’t help because I haven’t used it.

      Thanks. If my email was ‘leaked’ it is still out there in data file for sale maybe still. I’m wondering what effect using an [email protected] address has on anything already out there. sure if an alias leaked but I still use the original. ‘resolved’, not really

        did notice an uptick in all.one.word.spam emails which were pretty obvious spam. they never stop. wonder how my 85 yo mother deals with spam. got her to stop using hotmail and yahoo after a few stupid questions she was asking about emails. she still uses them for certain people. wonder if spam keeps old accounts active by randomly sending mail to them
