Browser maker Mozilla is working on a new service called Private Relay that generates unique aliases to hide a user's email address from advertisers and spam operators when filling in online forms.

"We will forward emails from the alias to your real inbox," Mozilla says on the Firefox Private Relay website.

Also, it gives Mozilla the chance to look through all the forwarded emails, which is great for profiling.
