Confidential one-time email addresses by Google to prevent spam and data leaks

Google is working on a feature that will allow users to create temporary email addresses or aliases. These addresses will forward emails to the primary address, ensuring its privacy.

The feature was discovered by Android Authority in the code of Google Play Services 24.45.33 under the name "Protected Email."

This system will help avoid spam and reduce the risk of data leaks. It is still unclear when testing will begin or whether the feature will be rolled out to all users.
