Thanks for obscuring my email address, TikTok.

What criminal mind could possibly figure out what the missing character is?! #cybersecurity

This is how I feel when I use Fastmail masked aliases where they’re something like

sitename@adjective.noun1234.fastmail.com

And sites like this “protect” my data by making it

site***e@adjective.noun1234.fastmail.com

I've got a catch-all as well, so sometimes the only thing that's masked is the part I don't remember if site name could be ambiguous.
