I am new to the alias world so I've a question. How can I be sure that an alias provider doesn't have access to my emails when they are forwarded?
Unfortunately there is no way, it requires trust. Just like you need to trust your email provider to not have access to your emails.
A point can be made here for email providers that also provide aliasing services such as Protonmail/SimpleLogin: Since they're the same entity, using an aliasing service requires no additional trust.
True but I believe SimpleLogin is based in France while Protonmail is based in Switzerland. Two seperate governments.
Indeed, interesting
