Hi! Please remove ProtonMail domains from your list. Yes, they provide anonymous registration, but outlook (from Microsoft evil corp) provides anonymous registration too! Here is a proof: vid.mp4 Y...
But inclusion of Proton domains makes many Proton users to be unable to register on websites. It is only helping google to keep monopoly and it is simply privacy harming
Besides that, this is just a list providing burner email addresses. Adding Outlook to this list makes sense. If sites are using this list as a blocklist that would cause issues, forcing them to not use this as blocklist anymore.
If I read correctly, in a PR someone makes an argument that Proton and Tuta are newer services that advertise privacy and anonymity as opposed to more well established services like Outlook or Apple mail that do end up linking mail to an identity.
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.
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.
I don’t think removing protonmail is the correct solution.
This is a list of email providers that facilitate temporary email addresses. So adding outlook and Apple to that list makea more sense to me?

How do you know this?

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?
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)
