## What it is
A community-maintained list of disposable and temporary email address domains, distributed as a plain-text blocklist and a PyPI package. It is used to prevent throwaway email addresses from registering on services, notably by PyPI itself.

## Use cases
- block signups from disposable email domains
- filter temporary email addresses during user registration
- validate that an email domain is not a throwaway provider
- reduce spam and abuse from dummy accounts
- integrate a disposable domain blocklist into a Python app via pip

## When to choose
- you need a broad, actively updated list of throwaway email domains
- you want a simple text blocklist or pip-installable package with no dependencies
- you need permissively licensed data (CC0) for commercial use

## When to avoid
- you need guaranteed real-time accuracy of every domain's disposable status
- you need an API or service rather than a static list
- you require a traditional OSI license rather than CC0

## Facets
- artifact type: dataset
- maturity: active
- function: email, security, data-generation
- domain: security, email, privacy, developer-tools
- platform: python, cross-platform
- tags: blocklist, disposable-email, spam-prevention, email-validation, cc0
