DuckDuckGo Email Protection Now Available for All Users

DuckDuckGo has just announced that Email Protection, the service that has until now been offered as part of a closed beta program, is now available for all, as the effort has been expanded to the public beta stage.

DuckDuck Email Protection is essentially a free email forwarding service whose purpose is to get rid of email trackers and therefore enhance the privacy of users.

There are two main components that DuckDuck Email Protection comes with.

First and foremost, it’s the standard email feature that allows users to create their own account, something like [email protected].

“Any emails sent here will be stripped of email trackers on our block list and then forwarded to whatever personal email address you provide, arriving at your regular inbox. Within forwarded emails, we’ll tell you how many trackers we’ve removed, what company appears to be behind them, and other helpful information,” DuckDuckGo
