Even if it isn't nefarious, it's often unwanted. I usually turn around if I have to provide my email to see some sort of whitepaper or sample because it means I will have to later unsubscribe from whatever email list I was put on and hope they don't share the list with others (which happens, often).

Whenever someone asks for an email, I just type lalelu@yopmail.com, and then I go to http://yopmail.com/lalelu and click the activation link.

It's a beautiful service.

If only there was an email service that let you create multiple email addresses for free! Or better yet one that let you create an email address that only exists for 10 minutes. A 10 minute mail service if you will.
