Blocking disposable emails is like fighting a hydra, they will always outplay a black list. This just hurts the legitimate users not on a popular provider.

This is the second time this month some overzealous moron decided to add these because they can be used for burner accounts, as if other services cannot. People like this are why we as a species haven’t advanced more.

I don't think removing protonmail is the correct solution.

This is a list of email providers that facilitate temporary email addresses. So adding outlook and Apple to that list makea more sense to me?

If the repo owner declined the request, that's pretty much the end of it. They own it, they can do what they want.

He thinks that it is because of anonymous registration. But Outlook provides it too…

Leave Proton alone ffs, without them I would have my Internet seriously limited by default by UK isps and the moronic Government that just wants everything to be it's own propaganda.

That’s why I posted this. I hope we will find a way to unblock Proton

Why does anyone care? This library has no public dependants, and low double-digit weekly downloads. Nobody's using that crappy library in the first place because the idea as a whole is incredibly dumb and futile.

This is for 0.1x engineers that can't figure out a captcha on their side.

Unfortunately, I contacted support of some local websites, and they said that they wouldn’t white list any domains and I need to contact this list owner

I don't get the point of all these disposable email filters. It's not hard to buy a new domain and set up a wildcard email server.

Moreover you can use this website (it generates temporary working Gmail addresses) or this website where is new domain name every day
