4. I sign up for things using a throwaway email address.

I tried creating an account using a getnada email address.

For various reasons, it is not working. (My Firefox add-ons kill CAPTCHA, so I have to go back to Safari)

The procedure is to go to getnada.com
You will be given a random email inbox, or you can "add inbox" to choose one of your own at one of their domains.

You can use this to receive emails, but not send them. This is usually enough to sign up for stuff, and get a link in your incoming email to click on, to verify the address.

CAVEAT:
Anyone who knows the email address (unlikely) can read the incoming messages, so delete after reading (easy)
Messages over a month or so old are automatically deleted.
After all, giving anyone your email address is likely to get you lots and lots of spam emails.
Use once, if you like, and ignore forever.
Or use it again. Your choice.
