Apple’s Hide My Email users... are we cooked??
Ngl this has me WORRIED.
I've been using Apple's Hide My Email because I genuinely thought it was one of the safest ways to keep my real email private. Now I'm seeing reports that someone may have found a way to figure out the real email behind those aliases... and apparently this was reported to Apple OVER A YEAR AGO. OVER. A. YEAR. AGO. WTF, Apple????
I use Coveron to keep an eye on whether my personal info shows up in leaks, and so far I haven't seen anything that looks like it came from this. But now I'm kinda wondering if I'm just missing something??? Like am I checking the wrong things???
Funny enough I literally signed up like 2 weeks ago because I found a discount code (prodeal, idk, might as well leave it here), and NOW this story drops. Did the universe seriously have my back for once or what???
Is anyone else using an identity monitoring service?? Have you noticed anything weird with your Apple email or aliases??? Or am I just spiraling here???
