The article talks about showing warnings when accessing misstyped URLs, not "killing URLs."
Nothing in the article I've read suggests they're doing anything of the kind. What a bunch of clickbait bs.
If you search this HN comments page, you'll find 3-4 other people claiming the same thing.
This article is an insult to news reporting.
