That’s a use case for aliases, catching if any company or service gives out your email to be abused by advertisers and whatnot. I tried looking for stories but didn’t find any, I wonder if you have any to share.

Kickstarter has a massive spam problem in my experience and best I can tell it’s not talked about.
I backed a single project, immediately deactivated any and all communication from KS, except for that project, but I keep getting mails from different domains, advertising various stupid crowdfunding projects.
I have 16 blocked mails in the last week alone.
