The reason disposable email addresses exist and are popular is because services have abused users' trust to not use these emails for shady ad revenue and marketing schemes.

It's further compounded by shoddy security that leads to leaks and exposure of people's personal email addresses to pwned compromised lists.

People don't want to give up their personal email addresses so that they can be spammed or hacked. Until services do better (ie don't sell me out for cheap) I'll keep using the latest disposable email address to sign up for your user-hostile websites.
