Do people actually give away their email address when stumbling across a mysterious non-descriptive landing-page that says nothing about who or what a company is? In other words - what's the point of having "we're in stealth mode" landing page in the first place? Might as-well point your domain at an ambiguous Tumblr blog, or a Facebook page. Thoughts?

I do. If I'm curious about something, I sign up. I already ignore thousands of emails a day, what's a few more?
Yes they do. Sadly. Some make up fake emails or use a junk email, but many give their real.
