Nothing like starting the day with some Patriotic reflection.

youtu.be?

Can someone esplain to me why the hyperlink says YouTube and the url is youtu.be?

[MrB]

I wouldn’t click it!

[My hearts in London - Everett]

Scaredy cat! ;~) It’s YouTube. Poster most likely typo’d.

[MrB]

Nope, I looked at the actual URL under the href.

it’s “youtu.be”.

“.be” is a registered Belgium domain.

No one attempts to represent themselves as someone else without a nefarious purpose.

[Nervous Tick]

Y’all are right to be suspicious.

However, in this case it appears to be just a “URL shortener”.

Thank you, Tick. I’m not well-versed in these matters!

[Nervous Tick]

You done good. As per the title of Andy Grove’s book, “Only The Paranoid Survive”.

Andy Grove co-founded Intel. I trust his judgment. :-)

Oh for pete’s sake, youtube has been shortening their url’s
under the “share” option for a couple of months now.
Belgian URL lol! sheesh!
