Does it make sense to have separate emails for each individual financial account (banking, credit cards) or is that overkill? I’m just thinking that if a hacker got access to one email they’d have all account information?

    Thanks for the info. You’ll have to forgive my ignorance as I’m not super well-versed but, I was of the impression that alias software like anon and simple login were more for avoiding spam and unwanted emails from sign ups. Is it also effective as a security tool?

      Security wise, maybe. You might be more protected against cred stuffing but reusing password on multiple services at the first place is already a big no no.
