> Indeed solved with persistent email (also solved by creating random new Gmail one time without paying for iCloud+)

If you make a “random new Gmail one time” and use that everywhere, that email address, for the purpose of tracking, is your actual email. People correlating your data across sites will not be able to infer your name from your email address, but that’s it.



Apple’s hide my email isn’t one alias for everything it creates a new alias for each different app/service.

I have probably 50+ aliases now so I can have a brand new unique email for everything different service that wants an email address to do anything.
