I went in to delete mine. Was forced to put in my real name and current employer without any way to opt out. So for a short brilliant moment I was Bobo Bobolicious of Bob's Boat Oars

I created my Glassdoor account about ten years ago. The only information they required at the time was an email address

An email address is usually also directly linked to your identity.... I wish more companies would not require it to signup... I do have throwaways and email accounts created using Tor though.

Have you tried Firefox Relay?

I'm not going to pay for fake email and 6 email addresses isnt enough (firefox relay)

Pay? I'm just testing out the service now with one for free.

ETA: you get 5 free email masks or $1-2/month for unlimited.
