Tor and Protonmail?

Guys, how does Protonmail reacts on Tor?
If I register email using Tor and login using Tor? Will emails be blocked?

What is the best way to prevent Protonmail from getting email disposable? I need to make sure it's reliable.

.onion link don't use IP.
So, if I use .onion link with Tor for Proton, is it better than proxies?

Proton is basically a service for those who care about their privacy. I use it as well in most of my social media accounts.
You question is not clear what you wanna achieve, but to my basic understanding you are asking which one is more secure proton on tor or the default one .com and will your account get blocked if you'll use and login through tor, right ??

They have different protocol built for Tor users, so why they will block the email accounts when it is being offered by them?

Proton is not disposable service, but as per their policy they remove the inactive accounts after 1 year (12 months).

Even their default service don't log any IPs.
If you are talking about using their .onion service in a Tor browser. Then Tor is already a secure protocol and a lot better than proxies. Not sure why you're comparing Tor and Proxies. And what kind of proxies you're talking about? Publicly available or some private proxy services?

Just log one out after using it.

I saw here in forum people were complaining that Protonmail locked their account, possibly due to IP cloaking.
Proxies - I mean residential.

I just want to make sure that whichever way i handle email restoration and further logins doesn't lock my accounts, as then my social media accounts will be inaccessible.

I need full anonymity (not just privacy) , therefore asking what levels of protections are needed, but which one can trigger a lock...

I think in some case they require phone number on registration to valide, so even you use TOR your anonymity is basically fucked. So protonmail might no be the good choice. So you may just try registering with TOR and see if they ask anything.
cock.li allow registration and usage using TOR, however accessible only on invite .

TOR is the most secure and anonymous protocol and a lot better than any proxies. But If you want to use proxies but are paranoid about your privacy and anonymity then use multiple layer proxies like 6/7 for extreme anonymity levels. Your machine will be behind multiple anonymous proxies.

It works like this, 1st proxy connects to the 2nd and 2nd connects to the 3rd one, so it creates a chain..

TBH, I've never seen protonmail blocking/locking user accounts based on IP cloaking, when they are supporting TOR themselves, which also works on multi layer IPs pool.

I know its your personal business, but I'm curious why you are this paranoid about anonymity?
Are you from North Korea?

They allow it, you won't be banned.
My Protonmail was created from using Tor.

can you elaborate what you mean by this?
Do you mean by PM terminating your account?
If so, then there is only 3 ways they will terminate an account.
1. Inactivity of 12 months
2. Delinquency via Paid accounts
3. Mass "Free" accounts beyond fair use policy/Fraudulent accounts

If you are using it properly within it's TOS, you won't have any issues as with nearly every single service...

Cute.
It's not me who is paranoid, but my client. and I am trying to figure out the solution, because it's not my domain of expertise... Obviously...

so, what would "mass" mean here? Does multiple account creation in a short period of time count somehow?
let's say, a dozen within a week?
I don't think their policy would clarify it, but maybe someone knows from their experience.

From their official reddit posts in the past I have read, having more than 1 free account is against the rules.
However, they will "overlook it" if you ain't being an idiot about it.



Which all comes to the same conclusion really, a few won't be an issue asolng you ain't being stupid with it.
