Apple keeps Hide My Email addresses on icloud.com
Image: Primary Apple confirmed that Hide My Email addresses will remain on the @icloud.com domain, reversing an earlier plan to move users to @private.icloud.com, TechCrunch reports.
Hide My Email gives iCloud+ subscribers disposable addresses that forward messages to a regular inbox. Users had argued that the proposed domain would make masked addresses easier for websites to reject during sign-up. Apple did not give a reason for its reversal.
The article also notes that Apple previously fixed a bug that could reveal users' real addresses through spam rejections.
