I wanted to build this for phone numbers at some point but it was way outside of my skill level at the time.

I feel like unique address per sender, receiver pair could cut down on so much spam.

And you can see exactly who is leaking your info.

I built https://statphone.com which is one emergency number that dials multiple people and shows up as itself on the caller ID so you know it's urgent.

You can use the same tech to build throwaway accounts like you are envisioning. Problem is that it would be prohibitively expensive.
