Protect your information with email masks now available in Firefox

Earlier this year, we announced that we were testing a new way for Firefox Relay users to access their email masks directly from Firefox. Today, we’re taking it to the next level and rolling this feature over the next couple of weeks out to millions of Firefox Account users in Firefox. Signing up for a Firefox Account is free and has its advantages, and it now includes access to email protection with Firefox Relay.

Throughout the year, we’ve been working on making it easier to get email protection in Firefox. In May, we added new features to the Firefox Relay add-on that enabled users to see Firefox Relay in their toolbar for every site, reuse existing email masks and generate a new random email mask. Keeping your real email address safe from trackers across the web is one of the key steps you can take to keep your personal information safe.

If you haven’t yet tried Firefox Relay, hear from our Firefox Relay team of engineers and colleagues, who can share more about how they use Firefox Relay in their lives. They built and maintain Firefox Relay, not only for themselves, but to also help keep millions of unwanted emails from people’s inboxes. Here is a list of hacks you might encounter when you go online and ways that Firefox Relay can help:

Thousands of users have signed up for our smart, easy solution that hides their real email address to help protect their identity. Wherever you go online, Mozilla’s trusted products and services can help you feel safer knowing that you have privacy protection for your everyday online life.
