SimpleLogin Review - How Have I Survived Without It!?

[@FactFinderGeneral]

People just need to remember open source is only safe if it's been audited and verified. So it's not unreasonable to have trust issues. Having an open code doesn't mean much if nobody qualified to analyze it has gone through each line 🤷‍♂️. Your average user doesn't have the training to do it themselves.

[@GodEmperorSuperStar]

"Only safe if it's been audited and verified" OR if you wrote it yourself (3rd-party components, libraries, etc. not withstanding). That and there really is no such thing as "secure". Reality check: all you have is risk reduction.

so when is that 5:50 "anon daddy" video coming?

[@alpinematrix]

I would like to see a review like this of Anonaddy please... Awesome job Techlore.

[@michaeltinker538]

I’ve been holding off on making a ton of emails simply because I already have around 4. But this tool is definitely piquing my interest.

Checked out this review, bought the subscription. Loving it so far!

[@pepega7015]

Every time I watch your video my iq went from 50 to 1000000

[@subscribefornoreason542]

Can you please make the video on AnonAddy soon and compare these two? So I can simply choose in case AnonAddy has an edge somewhere.. Loving your work!

[@MrLoggfreak]

The only downside I see with AnonAddy is the bandwidth limit on their free and cheaper paid plan. This can definitely be abused by sending a small handful emails with attachments to someone's AnonAddy alias, to make the service start dropping emails. This is not a problem on their more expensive plan though.

[@norrinradd8923]

I've tried AnonAddy and it's verification level is why I abandon ship

[@zainalu]

A comparison video b/w SimpleLogin and Forward Email would be appreciated!

[@leeoswald668]

The problem is that many websites don't want you to register with those emails 😑

[@ivanguerra1260]

Harvey, you are dead....

[@chrisc.1005]

what websites? guess I have been lucky still have not found a website that rejected it.

[@unclealig]

Sounds pretty nice. But how are my email adresses and aliases stored on SimpleLogin... is it encrypted on their ervers? what happens to my aliases if SimpleLogin "dies"?....

[@kushalroy4419]

can you make a video about Signal vs Threema vs Element vs Session, Which is most secure in 2020? PLEASE.

[@-zerocool-]

Sounds so confusing thoooooooooo, sooo many emails for each thing

[@k3v1n96iy]

Say you’ve already registered for a website with your real email address can you replace it with an alias and have the same benefits? or would that company still have the previously data and sell it off anyway so you still receive spam

[@benedict4363]

Did you get any answer to this?

[@joelstephenson8017]

So, how does simplelogin keep all your different aliases separate in it's system? It looks like it will know everything about your subscriptions.

[@rapiddu6482]

Holy shit! I wanted something like this one for long time.

[@simonmustermann6845]

If you are a student, you get their premium option for free! (look at the faq at simplelogin. io/pricing)

[@BaazBull]

You changed my life by showing way to get out of giants trap today I'm really close degoogle (I'm already out of eye from FB group) This great app

[@redeyesdrogon786]

Where has this been all my life? I need this, immediately

[@112BALAGE112]

I prefer AnonAddy because it doesn't force you to use email subaddressing (using + characters). Many websites don't support subaddresses and break if you try to sign up with them.

[@techlore]

The directories are optional. You can just do [e-mail] (If the alias is already created of course) The domains just allow the creation of the alias without simplelogin

@@techlore That's right. I'd like to further explain how directories behave. It is a way for you to create aliases on the fly without going to simplelogin. Let say you are a hardcore shopper and you have a directory named "shopping", whenever you need to register to a new site/service, you don't need to explicitly go to simplelogin and create an alias before using it, juste type "shopping+randomname@asupporteddomain" and you are good to go. The first time an email is sent to "shopping+randomname@asupporteddomain", the alias is created automatically for you. Currently there are 4 supported domain: aleeas.com, slmail.me, simplelogin.co, simplelogin.fr

[@112BALAGE112]

@@techlore Correct. To clarify my point, the SimpleLogin free plan allows only 15 aliases. I meant that if you wish to use more that 15 addresses for free, you have to use subaddresses or switch to AnonAddy, which offers unlimited aliases.

[@Drakcloud65]

Anonaddy is cheaper (around 12€ per year) and have basically the same features. It's a great alternative

[@isun666]

Lmao everyone calling anonaddy anondaddy xD

Please help me , 5th like and 1St view

[@chrischiu782]

There’s a lot that I still don’t understand about this service, but doesn’t SimpleLogin become a hub for attackers, knowing a breach means access to that many more email inboxes? How secure and private is the personal email from being leaked to the outside? Would genuinely want to know

[@t83ndnsk3k]

That is scary.

[@mtunit]

Clear & concise presentation .

[@TMSxYouT]

Waw, never heard about such tools, pretty interesting to try, thank you very much for sharing with us.

[@reefhound]

These days we are bombarded with services and subscriptions, any one of which may be "worth it", but next thing you know you're shelling out hundreds of dollars per month on them.

[@ben_west]

What if you already have a bunch of separate addresses already. Seems like a lot of work to replace existing compartmentalization strategy. But it's free so that's cool.

[@grim.reaper]

I really needed something like that 😭😭😭

[@niravraychura]

Its a nice thing to have .. thanks for the video...

[@Shevooo4Ever]

I'm using the service now based on your recommendation but I have few concerns regarding it. First does the service scan your emails before redirecting it? What happens if they decided to stop the service? how can I get access to my accounts?

[@cherten1]

This is interesting what if Goggle (yes I did spell it correctly), Fakebook or Twatter buys them out. Even worse service just closes? Something to think about.

[@naughtywizard]

Protonmail lol

[@zeddybear257]

Thanks for all the great info, all the great vids - super helpful!

[@lilnorris]

If I have already registered with my email to any service, that service has my email. So what's the point of using it in that case?

[@Ranger10700]

A use case that comes in mind is: let's say you decide to use SimpleLogin for *insert shopping site here*. 3 weeks later, *insert shopping site here* gets hacked and they get all current emails and hashed passwords, even if they figured out what your hashed password was, they couldn't then use "credential stuffing" to access your other accounts, even if for some reason you used the same password as another service. Seriously great tool. I would say that feature alone, even if you have given providers your real email before, is worth it. This tool almost completely eliminates the most common methods of credential stuffing, at least to my knowledge.

[@norrinradd8923]

It's verification ability is really big factor for me I'll give it a go.....

[@Emre-qc6cf]

40 emails, wow. It must be really tough to manage them, yet since you have them, that means you need and are able to manage them. I should be much more organized like you:)

[@orrin1587]

Great video! I will be looking into this.

[@waschosen-]

I don't understand what the practical use of SimpleLogin is. Even if you have a hundred alias email addresses, spam would still be sent to you as usual. The only difference is that the sender wouldn't know your real address. When you subscribe to certain services with a fake email address, you wouldn't just randomly delete that fake address either, unless you no longer want to subscribe to whatever is behind it.

[@t83ndnsk3k]

Think the only thing is if there is a data breach at say Reddit, the alias would be removed in the breach, not your real email. The alias just forwards to your real email

That helped me a lot, and the VPN I used too. The story goes like this; I entered my alias email and my password on a website I didn't trust, but you know a lot of websites were talking about it in a good way, so I trust it a bit but just to make sure that my email is save I used an alias email, and after few days I saw an email telling me my password which I generated it, and he said we would like to meet in someplace in London, because of the VPN he was thinking that I was living in London but I wasn't from there, so I deleted my alias email ASAP, so the VPN and SimpleLogin and generating a password saved me from the danger. Edit: from that moment, I always used alias emails in all of my accounts.

Hi

[@GetGood5]

Nice review

[@poweruser64]

Fun fact: Gmail can do the *fdsa+alias@**gmail.com* thing too. You can also do things like *f.d.s.a@**gmail.com**,* or even *fd.sa+al14s@**googlemail.com**.* All of these examples point to the same location Not that I'm trying to promote Gmail or anything

[@Ranger10700]

The problem with this method, while a neat solution, is that any potential hacker who gets access to your email is able to have knowledge of this as well, and while it will be pretty effective at keeping your other accounts like that, it means they will probably have access to at least your main email account. But just something to consider.

[@strongboy54]

Fuck Google.

[@francoisbasson973]

Hi, would you still use various email addresses and seperate and compartmentalize your life when using this....I want to do it right from the start....or is one email and aliases good for privacy?

Question: I can hide my email in this way, but majority of websites ask you also for name, and a card is linked at your name when you pay (es for Amazon). In this case is useless right?

Sounds like a headache. I don't use email enough for that

[@starchysgraveyardshift]

Works pretty good, only thing is that (on mobile at least) I can’t reply to emails. Which could be ignorable. You can just copy the “reverse alias” and send a separate email. Just not for instances when you need to directly reply to an email to confirm you have access to said mail.

why not just get your own domains and configure those to be catch-all accounts? I do this with Proton Mail 1. I have several custom domains configured with ProtonMail that are all configured to be catchalls. 2. next time I sign up to a newsletter, I just make up an email address on the spot -- [e-mail] 3. all those emails dump into my overall Proton account. If I ever need to reply to one of the emails (which I've only had to do a handful of times), it's fairly easy in Proton to temporarily create any particular account, send whatever replies, then delete the account when I'm done. This way I end up with all of the hundreds of accounts I use having individual email accounts that I could easily move to another system if something happened with Proton.

[@subashr5649]

relay.firefox.com/ I think firefox relay is same. Can i use this firefox relay?

[@kinkykoala1086]

I like the concept, but at first look I got the impression it's a bit messy and not the most intuitive thing. ProtonMail makes it pretty easy, and with a paid account, it's easy to add more aliases. It's more expensive, but really convenient. Another easy alternative is RiseUp, which I use most of the time. It's free, secure, and I think you've got unlimited aliases (not sure about that, but if there's a limit, I haven't hit it yet). Only drawback with RiseUp is that they have no 2FA and, of course, that people need an invite. But with a good password, I don't think that the lack of 2FA is so bad. I trust RiseUp pretty much. Have you tried some of those? How'd you say they compare to SimpleLogin?

[@taranagnew436]

so how do i input the alies+email whenever i sign-up for a newsletter, do i put @aleeas address into newsletter textbox?
