- sebzim4500 3y agoThere are lots of contexts where you can't use an href tag. Twitter maybe?
- CydeWeys 3y agoThis supposed attack doesn't work on Twitter either (or Gmail, or anywhere else I can think of). The full URL doesn't get linkified because of the very contrived use of Unicode slashes in the username portion of the URL.
- lostmsu 3y agoThis may be a twitter problem, but it is not a web problem.
- faangsticle 3y agoEmail (people have been told to look at the little popup that shows where a hyperlink goes for like a decade now) Pretty much any chat application Pretty much any website that allows comments, like HN
- rainonmoon 3y ago...the same email where you can modify links to appear as whatever you'd like anyway? Same goes for HN etc. This is overblown.
- faangsticle 3y agoLike I said "people have been told to look at the little popup that shows where a hyperlink goes for like a decade now" > Same goes for HN etc No. Show me if you think you can.
