For all the comments saying obfuscation is pointless. I have an email address listed publicly on a project website with basic obfuscation (something like x <at> y <dot> com), plus a bit of javascript to automatically deobfuscate it in the browser. It's been there for years and never received a spam email.

But then I have another address which I've been similarly careful with but have also used on a few registrations and that gets a bit of spam (not that much though).

Reckon it'll still work a while more yet.

Sheesh just got its first one on the same day as posting this. Feels like someone's personally taken the time.
