Good thought experiment! Makes it hard to remember the correct address for each site, but meh, that's the job of my password manager anyway.

one wouldn't have to remember. if the address you gave out using the w3w-style encoder starts getting spammed, you can reverse it with the w3w-style decoder.

you'd need an app or a mnemonic device of some sort if you wanted to give an email out in public as opposed to sitting at a computer. but ideally on the computer when you notice spam you just reverse the email address back to who you gave it to; "target.com", "kroger.com"
