#2"Thousands of people use Mailinator everyday, so clearly, its a useful tool that many sites accept"
How many of you would have an outright revolt on your hands from your QA/QE folks if you banned mailinator? I think everyplace I worked would experience this same issue if we did this.

#3This is great, but it seems like he got rid of the separate page now (the link in the article 404s) and the text is just inline again.

#4Wow. Do my daily HN scan for the day and find an article you wrote ~4 years at #1.
I hadn't read that in many years, and what fun to do a re-read.
Thanks Internet - don't stop being you.

#5Here's a list of disposable email domains if you'd really like to block them: https://github.com/lavab/disposable
I would go one step further and look for {spam_words} in "username+{text}@{googledomain}.com", where spam_words can be "junk", "spam", etc. This is like a very narrow edge case, but still might catch something. Again, if you're into that kind of thing; I'm quite skeptical that it brings any value.

#7That was a fun read.
It took me a bit to get my head around the use cases. It's sometimes amazing how many different ways you can twist a simple (complex really) thing like email into a product/idea.

#8I am in a CIA prison.
I have to wait until it escalates. The guard has limited years to get me to go to a license plate job.
It will escalate. Couple years, maybe.
The IQ is not good enough to know what NIST is.
Prolly take couple more years.

#9Great story! Before deciding to use blacklists or lockouts (on anything), know that it can and will be used against you.

I was sad to see that the link to the domain generator was broken. The new one on the home page is a div that's generated server-side.
I hope you don't mind that I wrote a quick one-liner to see if you're still detecting bots...
