The focus of this change is to improve the identification of content. This coupled with payment has been subject lots of fraud where users misled about the owner of a website.
google-payments-secure.via.net is not a google payment website despite the google in the domain name. The key part that signifies the ownership / identify of the person hosting the site is the END of the domain, the google.com part. That is the owner of the web property, not whatever appears before that.

- hermanradtke 7y agoThere are other ways to do this that do not hide parts of the URL. Educating people should not hide information, but instead present information in a way that is more understandable. I think the Chrone team is making URLs harder to understand.
- badrabbit 7y agoThat's what google uses as an argument too and I am too familiar with the problem. The problem here is that Google is in control of the solution and the solution is designed by them without consulting everyone else and in a way that would be advantageous to their long term dominance and prosperity. I don't trust google and they certainly don't have my consent to shape the way I and the society I live in interact with each other. I will say it a million times if needed. I do not trust google. Period. They ask forgiveness instead of permission and they love slipperly slops and bait-and-switch psychology tricks to get their way.
