Ha! Great minds think alike.

We have something that makes genuine links look malicious at work too.

I think it’s called Microsoft Safelink or something. Its purpose is to go through your Outlook inbox and obscure the origin of every link because, obviously, being able to understand what you’re clicking on is bad.

Remember kids, no one ever gets fired for buying Microsoft. ;)



Safe links also likes to visit sites to check what the link is, so way too many sites will not let you reset your password because you've already used the link now.

Not sure if that's really a safe links problem, but it's super annoying.


hahaha yes, a couple of months ago some microsoft servers where down or really slow so no links from emails worked.


this hits so hard hahaha

also ProofPoint filtered links
