Google has unveiled a groundbreaking new feature called “Shielded Email” that aims to revolutionize email privacy and combat spam.This innovative tool allows Gmail users to create temporary email aliases, effectively masking their primary email address when signing up for online services or filling out forms.
Shielded Email works by generating unique, single-use email addresses that automatically forward messages to the user’s primary Gmail inbox. This means users can interact with websites and services without exposing their real email addresses, significantly reducing the risk of spam and unwanted marketing communications.
