    I have a firstname.lastname email address, but I only use it for e.g. my son’s school or work contacts, who already know me by my real name. It’s not associated with any accounts or login info. I have an awful email address I created when I was 16 that gets used for signing up for random junk.

      Yeah, I think its appropriate for e.g. government or job related stuff. Smart to use a burner for other stuff. Thee are also email alias services that allow you to make up new addresses that forward to your main account.
