Why I’m Building an "Email Condom" over the weekend?
The problem: I sign up for B2B services, and weeks later I get spam. I never know who leaked my email.

I generate a unique alias for every service (zoom@sentry... , notion@sentry... ).
If that alias receives email from a different domain, the system flags a Data Breach.
(Here is the fun part) It offers to auto-generate a GDPR Article 33 complaint against the original service provider.

A few thoughts:

I'd try this. The "who leaked my email" question is something I've wondered about for years.
