C.<p>Then, a couple of months later, I get spam from a seller trying to get me to buy knockoff designer handbags, or a Nigerian prince trying to secret his fortune away, or something else odious.</p><p>But look -- the email was sent to the address "crappytire@example.net"!</p><p>Now I know, with absolute certainty, that this spammer got my address, directly or indirectly, from Crappy Tire. Maybe they sold their mailing list far and wide. Maybe their systems were hacked and every customer's email was exfiltrated.</p><p>I can now take action. If I think they sold my address, I can write a nastygram referencing their privacy policy or Canada's PIPEDA act, or Europe's GDPR, or whatever. If I think my address was stolen from their systems, I can report the security incident to them, or publicize it so others know it may have happened to them.</p><p>And most importantly, I can disable that email address. Just refuse all mail sent to it. It's no longer of use to spammers or crooks. If I ever deal with Crappy Tire again, I give them a new unique address.</p><p>Anyway, that's a lot of backstory. I use this technique extensively. I have caught many, many companies selling/renting their mailing lists in violation of their own policies. I have caught many others that have been hacked, and they didn't even know it.</p><p>So what's the thing that happens to me occasionally regarding this?</p><p>2/x</p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/privacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>privacy</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/hack" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>hack</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/MailingList" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MailingList</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/GDPR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GDPR</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/PIPEDA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PIPEDA</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/nastygram" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>nastygram</span></a></p>
