Mike Lapidakis: An Ode to Apple's Hide My Email

Last summer, Apple announced that as part of their iCloud+ service expansion, a new feature named Hide My Email was launching. The feature received little fanfare and was mainly swept up in the plethora of other news from WWDC. After using it for nearly a year, I think we’ve done it a bit of a disservice.

I actually agree wholeheartedly here. Hide My Email is fantastic, and it feels like it's been a quiet success since it launched. I haven't had to use it to save myself from bad actors or anything yet, but it's a great confidence boost that I could if I ever need to.
