00:01.440 --> 00:07.950
Whenever you sign up to a website, you have to give your e-mail address and sometimes even your phone

00:07.950 --> 00:08.400
number.

00:08.880 --> 00:14.470
This information could be shared to third parties and used to track or spam you.

00:15.270 --> 00:20.400
I think there's no one that has never received a spam or a commercial phone call.

00:21.030 --> 00:28.020
A solution to this problem is a temporary e-mail or phone number for each non-essential service you

00:28.020 --> 00:28.690
want to use.

00:29.340 --> 00:36.480
Let's start talking about temporary e-mails and then we'll go ahead to disposable phone numbers and

00:36.500 --> 00:38.640
second phone number, EPP's.

00:39.960 --> 00:46.830
Let's suppose you want to access a new forum, a gaming community, a magazine or a news site, and

00:46.830 --> 00:53.640
to do that you have to sign up and provide an e-mail address to avoid tracking and correlations with

00:53.640 --> 01:00.170
your Web history and other Web sites you have visited where you've used the same e-mail address.

01:00.510 --> 01:01.680
You should use a new one.

01:02.100 --> 01:07.560
Of course, you can create some temporary free e-mail accounts, but you are limited because you cannot

01:07.560 --> 01:09.660
create hundreds of e-mail accounts.

01:09.810 --> 01:16.590
And the many e-mail providers, including Gmail, require a phone number and do not permit too many

01:16.590 --> 01:18.990
accounts using the same phone number.

01:20.070 --> 01:22.890
The solution to this problem is really simple.

01:23.320 --> 01:29.340
There are lots of services that offer temporary or disposable e-mail addresses.

01:30.600 --> 01:37.710
Tampa, male and gorilla male are only two of such services that work at the moment.

01:39.090 --> 01:42.650
Disposable e-mail addressing or dark mail.

01:42.870 --> 01:50.400
OK, first one approach where a unique e-mail address is used for every contact entity or for a limited

01:50.400 --> 01:51.300
period of time.

01:51.720 --> 01:59.970
The advantage is that if anyone compromises your e-mail address or utilizes it to send you spam, the

01:59.980 --> 02:05.910
other sonar can easily dispose of it without affecting any of their other contacts.

02:06.540 --> 02:08.850
This is a powerful antispam weapon.

02:09.780 --> 02:12.000
Take a look at guerilla mail, dotcom.

02:13.110 --> 02:20.370
This is a temporary e-mail address, and I can use it as a throwaway e-mail note that the access to

02:20.370 --> 02:23.250
the inbox is possible without authentication.

02:23.520 --> 02:25.380
In fact, anyone can read it.

02:26.630 --> 02:33.020
If I want, I can use other domains or even other name before the Eppstein.

02:38.680 --> 02:46.330
This is my temporary e-mail address, and I can use it as a throwaway e-mail if somebody else has already

02:46.330 --> 02:47.050
created it.

02:47.290 --> 02:50.860
The other person can access the inbox as well.

02:52.430 --> 02:56.330
For example, I'm sitting a common name, let's say Johnny.

03:02.430 --> 03:02.870
Nice.

03:03.690 --> 03:09.360
These are the e-mails that Johnny at Shark lacerates about Combe has received.

03:12.130 --> 03:15.100
These are one time throwaway e-mails.

03:16.300 --> 03:23.380
Let's suppose I want to create a new account on a website to access some content and I'll choose BBC

03:24.190 --> 03:25.420
that's GEODETIC.

03:26.660 --> 03:28.100
I've chosen it randomly.

03:30.780 --> 03:32.250
And they want to sign in.

03:34.580 --> 03:39.860
I don't have a BBC account, so I'm creating a new one, I'm over 16.

03:41.640 --> 03:43.890
I'll choose a random date of birth.

03:52.060 --> 04:00.230
And a temporary e-mail address, lix, use a temporary address from Temple DataCash, for example.

04:00.260 --> 04:00.700
This one.

04:02.330 --> 04:04.490
I'm copying it to the clipboard.

04:11.840 --> 04:16.310
And I've used a random password and I click on register.

04:21.280 --> 04:25.540
Now they want me to check my email address to verify the account.

04:29.340 --> 04:32.310
And the e-mail is already in my inbox.

04:34.910 --> 04:42.260
This is the message that I've received from BBC, that U.K. and I can click on verify your e-mail address

04:42.620 --> 04:43.550
to get verified.

04:45.200 --> 04:51.950
Great, I'll never use that email again, I just wanted an email address to sign up.

04:53.420 --> 05:00.470
I've shown you how to avoid spam or even tracking by using a temporary e-mail address in the next video,

05:00.680 --> 05:05.630
I'll show you what to do to better protect your phone number and your privacy.
