If Google succeeds with the new DRM policy, will that affect functionality of browsers like firefox which uses a different engine?

      Cuz Google somehow or another managed to get .zip passed as a top level domain.

      attachment.zip

      ^ That’s not even written out as a markdown link, that’s literally just the letters I typed.

      See, clearly Google is getting a bit careless about their top level domains. Lemme try a thing…

      google.bs

      ^ If this shows up as a link, please don’t click. Or at least proceed with caution.

        Probably just depends on how websites or apps handle it? I’m using Liftoff and that’s not a link for me

          Strangely, I’ve discovered that for whatever reason, Liftoff isn’t working right (as per current standards).
