Breach databases, spam lists, data brokers — your inbox becomes a permanent tracking identifier that follows you everywhere.</p> <p>The usual solutions all have problems: temporary email services expire, shared alias systems have central servers, and catch-all domains can&rsquo;t truly &ldquo;delete&rdquo; an alias.</p> <p><strong><a href="https://ankitmaurya.pages.dev/projects/cloakmail">CloakMail</a> takes a different approach.</strong> It&rsquo;s a browser extension that generates a unique email alias per site, backed by a real Cloudflare Email Routing rule on <em>your own domain</em>. No servers, no subscriptions, no telemetry. When you delete an alias, mail bounces immediately — because the rule is gone from Cloudflare&rsquo;s MTA.</p>
