Nowadays pdf get opened in the browser in a javascript viewer that is sandboxed.
- LegitShady 4y agoyou say that like chrome hasn't had pdf vulnerabilities patched in their javascript viewer, but of course they have. This idea of just linking to PDFs and having people click on them seems like a bad idea.

- dec0dedab0de 4y agoYour original comment is flagged, but I am generally wary of clicking on pdf links. Especially on mobile where I have to download and open in a different app. That's just a huge pain.
