Seems like a nice way to raise a bit of money for the foundation, and the problem of children needing email addresses is a real one. I just don't understand how reserving an email address years before they need it actually improves their privacy.

Is this really just a case of reserving an address if your child has a common first name and last name, without having to keep the address active?

It "improves privacy" because Proton is a "private email service". That's all there is to that line of marketing here.
