New ask Hacker News story: Tell HN: Both emails addresses harvested from my profile
Tell HN: Both emails addresses harvested from my profile

Just to let the general community know, I'm now receiving emails to the other email address in my HN profile. The latest email is a subscription confirmation email for a blog I've never seen and in which I have no interest. On the other hand, obscuring your details too much can mean that people you want to talk to can't contact you. Email is everywhere, pretty much everyone still uses it, despite everything, it's still important and relevant. Personally, I think those who abuse it are scum. But they are out there ... we have to deal with it.
