Get a Free Email Account for Some Email Anonymity
If you want to send an email in a somewhat anonymous, in a semi-anonymous manner, there's an easier way:
- Get a free email account.
Of course, you have enter personal details during the sign-up process and possibly also an email address that can be followed to you. The provider of the free email account can identify you.
But the recipients of emails sent from a free email account have no immediate way of telling who is behind it. So, for limited email anonymity, free email accounts can be a quick and easy solution.
