Is it always the same discord server? I got the message the other day but ignored it.

I 100% agree with you. But I'll also admit that I email people ALL the time and I have no idea what their email alias is. I just hit reply.

I absolutely agree with you that even with a rotation musk's email alias will get leaked. I'm just agreeing with you that it was security through obscurification and it would have worked if one of the emails got leaked. A thousand people would have tried variations of elon.musk@ i am willing to bet none of them would have tried erm71@

And let's face it that man has an auto forward on his email lmao

No it does not. Neither does having a password as they can be leaked or cracked or who knows what. Turning off tcmp echo on your router won't stop all bad actors but it will stop some. All security practices are just small steps to make it slightly harder for bad actors.

I'm sure that is exactly what it means. The point was to hide it a little bit, it's not the standard first.last of everyone else but to make it still uniquely identifiable as musk. It's not a completely unheard of practice to hide potential high spam targets. The goal isn't to completely hide, just make it slightly harder to find
