So you have a different account for each game? This seems like a lot of effort for little return

Yes. I really don't think it's an effort really. I mean I just press register and enter some_unique_name@mydomain.com. This takes a minute. It's not that I have to create a new emailaccount or something. And I can even remember them, because the names follow a pattern. As I said it all goes in a single catch-all inbox where I can easily filter by adress. And if I get spam on such an adress they either got hacked or sold my data. Origin for example leaked my email adress for Dragon Age. I also give out unique emailadresses everywhere I need to give one. I got spam on an email I gave exclusively to an ebook distributor. When this happens I just block this adress. I do this because it's no effort at all. If we meet I could say to you: my email is yourname@mydomain.com and you get out your phone, send me an email and I recieve it. No work at all on my side.
