This may require more thought, but at first glance, I am not sure I agree
with you Maureen.<br><br>
One of the things about phishing URLs is that they often contain parts of
the faked URL embedded in the fully qualified address - either as higher
than the 2nd level domaon name, or in the page identifier. So to the
unskilled eye, it "looks" like it is going to a safe place. But
the core site it is going to is not at all related to the place the user
may think it is going to. By showing only the base URL, that may be
avoided.<br><br>
So blah.scammer.com/BankofAmerica.com would only show the scamming
URL.<br><br>
I am curious as to how bankofamerica.com.blah.scammer.com would be
displayed.<br><br>

One of the things that we are trying to engender among our end-users in
our capacity-building activities is to raise their awareness of where
they are getting information from and where they are landing when they
want information. And checking before they click is an important rule.
Just being given a short URL is defeating the whole point of our trying
to encourage responsible user practice and behaviour. More of an issue
for newer less experienced users in developing countries.<br><br>

<dd>I haven’t actually chatted with the chrome dev team about this
before, their goal is actually to increase user experience, quantitative
user data shows most people have no idea what a URL is anymore beyond
potentially I go to <a href="http://x.com">x.com</a>, beyond the tld many
users have little to no idea of the functionality of “the
restâ€<br><br>

<dd> If we are supposed to be looking after end users, why aren’t we
outraged that we can’t see the full URL - particularly since Google is
most likely trying to hide how pervasive it is in
everyone’s lives <br><br>

<dd>Subject:</b> [At-Large] Ars Technica : Google is messing with the
address bar again—new experiment hides URL path</font> <br>
<dd> <br>
<dd>"It looks like Google is trying to mess with the URL bar again.
As spotted by
<a href="https://www.androidpolice.com/2020/06/12/google-resumes-its-senseless-attack-on-the-url-bar-hides-full-addresses-on-chrome-canary/">
Android Police</a>, new flags in the developer versions of the popular
browser now want to hide the URL path. So for an article like this one,
instead of
"<a href="https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2020/06/google-is-messing-with-the-address-bar-again-new-experiment-hides-url-path/,">
https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2020/06/google-is-messing-with-the-address-bar-again-new-experiment-hides-url-path/,</a>
" the address bar would show
"<a href="http://arstechnica.com/">arstechnica.com</a>."<br><br>
