Google to introduce temporary email aliases for enhanced privacy and spam prevention.

Google is developing a new feature that will enable users to create disposable email addresses or aliases, providing enhanced privacy and better protection against spam. These temporary addresses will forward incoming emails to the user's primary email address, ensuring the primary address remains private.


The feature, dubbed "Protected Email," was uncovered by *Android Authority* within the code of Google Play Services version 24.45.33.


This system is designed to help users avoid spam and reduce the potential for data breaches. However, it's still unclear when testing will begin or whether the feature will be rolled out to all users in the near future.
