Summary

The Trump administration launched a tip line encouraging federal employees to report colleagues involved in diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA) efforts.

However, the email account has been flooded with spam, including movie scripts, jokes, and fake reports.

This tip line is part of Trump’s broader anti-DEIA campaign, which includes dismantling diversity programs and revoking anti-discrimination policies.

Similar spam efforts have disrupted government tip lines in the past, leaving their operations ineffective.

Critics see the initiative as divisive and potentially facing legal challenges.

    With proton you can create an alias to receive mail, like when you’re signing up for a new service, but I don’t think you can send mail from the alias address.

      A nuance I hadn’t noticed/explored but that makes sense. Yeah, then you would only have access to proton.me and pm.me for sending (unless you owned a domain…but then your name is associated with the domain).

      Thanks for pointing this out to me.
