Key features of Firefox Relay include:
- Email Masking: Users can generate temporary email masks that forward emails to their real addresses, without revealing the actual email.
- Anonymity: Email masks help preserve users’ anonymity when sharing contact information, such as on social media platforms.
- Control: Users can easily deactivate email masks and manage emails from various sources by creating multiple masks and renaming them as needed.
- Data Protection: By using email masks, users can prevent bad actors from knowing their actual email address, reducing the risk of potential data breaches and fraud.
- Avoiding Spam: If an email mask starts receiving spam, users can block emails from that mask without affecting their primary email.
- Use Cases: Email masks can be used for signing up to services, sharing contact information, and protecting against data leaks.
It’s important to note that while Firefox Relay offers enhanced privacy, some services may not allow users to sign up using email masks, and there could be limitations or restrictions depending on the specific platform.
