Föderation · Do 06.07.2023 02:59:45 Umm... I'm not sure there is a way to block an entire type of server software. By the way, do you mean there's a link behind a piece of text? The URL would still be visible if you hover though? |

Föderation · Do 06.07.2023 15:53:50 That's a very common link type on the internet though? Pretty much all links are like that. You should be able to long-press on a link to see more details if you're on a touchscreen. |

Föderation · Do 06.07.2023 21:53:42 This is full out, flat out, nonsense. "Phishing Attacks: The #1 Reason We Say “Don’t Click Links” " 2018 marked the first year since phishing statistics were recorded that compromised accounts had a higher occurrence rate than malware infections. Malware infections generally occur when you download a file or click a link that’s infected. They can also come from a vulnerability in your network that isn’t related to a specific email message. |

Föderation · Fr 07.07.2023 01:05:19 I might be missing something? Can you explain the difference for me between these links and the ordinary links you see on most websites? |

Time magazine wouldnt itself, and third parties couldnt hide malware under its hidden url. But if 13,000,000 people are hiding links from 10,000 servers we dont know.... |

Föderation · Fr 07.07.2023 01:53:22 I understand that, but there are already ways to see what a link's true URL is by hovering or long-pressing? |

Föderation · Fr 07.07.2023 00:12:03 I'm sorry, I would love to help but I don't understand what the problem is? Surely all websites and web links are using this same format? |

Föderation · Fr 07.07.2023 00:24:15 Phishing can be looked up, security professionals could be contacted, research is certainly needed. Automatically exposing any hidden urls in the text of the post, is a helpful protocol. Doesnt wordpress do that in comments? |
