> I don't get it, if your email address is so private then why you share it with 3rd parties?
How would you use it otherwise? My backyard is private, but I share it with a few 3rd parties. That doesn't mean i intent to share my backyard with the entire world.
There is an element of trust with particular 3rd parties that is being violated. Why is that so hard to understand?
So what is the address of my backyard? Besides being an inane argument, how do you know it is not private?
Unless you run your own mail server, someone knows your email address, so are you trying to define that as not private? Obviously, we are using fuzzy terms about private/public when there is a huge gradient of privacy.
