while i share the sentiment, the ai model here isn't looking to harvest email ids. their model is to harvest the content of email messages and summarise them into a list of "a citizen's most pressing concerns".
aliases will not allay the qualms of such a service.
Which arguably is a decent use case for it. As it is there's some stranger or in-between going through them for the same reason, at best. And most likely then just putting them into categories, not actually applying any sort of analysis whatsoever for most governments or politicians that receive those emails.
