DuckDuckGo Email Protection (aliasing service)

I think the DuckDuckGo’s new Privacy Pro plan solves this issue, assuming that people subscribe to them due to DDG’s reputation.

Does anyone know if Proton Pass supports using the DuckDuckGo API key for the aliases or not?

Impressed with the service so far.

UI is looking good and basic.

Got blocked for too many requests after trying to change many accounts’ emails to a @duck.com alias yet it resets after 24 hours.

The included tracking protection (removal) is great and works well, I have it forwarding to a Proton address and indeed Proton never even sees the trackers.

The lack of a panel showing the aliases is a bit dangerous, just make sure to note the email you’re associating to each account in your Bitwarden, besides this the integration directly into Bitwarden makes this amazing for being free and very smooth experience.

Great overview of the service, the only reason I would recommend someone stick with Simplelogin or Addy.io is because it lacks PGP support

When I last looked on DDG’s website it was a bit light on information. Anyone able to answer the following:

  1. Does/Can DDG replace or hide email subjects?
  2. Can users view/download failed deliveries?
  3. The maximum email size?
  4. Any bandwidth limit (p/ day or mnth)?
  5. Is it correct that DDG is an American company?
  6. What information does DDG log/store?

I doubt it!

When testing, I do get failed delivery notifications but only on the way out. Also, it seems I saw once receiving the email in spam in a Gmail account, that’s pretty bad.

Yes!

About the other questions, I believe there isn’t any info around.
