Maybe hidemyemail allows easily creating many accounts on a site. And some big site didn't like it.

The "Sign-up via Apple" button and creating an iCloud email yourself have a slightly higher barrier than creating a new throwaway hidemyemail email (1 API call w/o captcha/phone verification or whatever).

We might find out later this year if some site starts blocking @icloud.com but keeps allowing @private.icloud.com.
