Defunct. This plugin does not exist anymore.
This feature of blacklisting certain email domains already exists in Discourse, but the bonus with this plugin is that you avoid maintaining (and entering) a list of thousands of free email domains.
The good news is that there are only really about 20-30 reliable, popular disposable email services … so it’s not that much trouble to use the site setting.
But if you want a complete block of hundreds, maybe thousands of potential free email sites, this is certainly a better alternative.

Cool deal. I’ll take advantage of this.

Yes, that is correct, almost no need to manually add blocked domains anymore. Besides the standard disposable email providers (like Mailinator) Kickbox also catches a lot of the dynamically created disposable emails.
Of course, there are paid services like https://debounce.io/ and https://www.ipqualityscore.com/ which are even better, but I wanted to ship the plugin with a free service out of the box.
As mentioned in my OP, you could still use the plugin and relay the response from a paid service to one the plugin understands e.g. via Zapier & co.

Is this still available for the latest Discourse version?

I just activated the plugin and tried it but unfortunately it didn’t work. I was able to register with a random temporary e-mail address generated via https://temp-mail.org/
I checked to see if I did something wrong but couldn’t find a problem.
