You either have a stick up your ass, are too stupid to know the
difference between a malware link and a real link OR
both.
Now go back to your worrying about the 0.00001% of links that contain
malware.

Yeesh.
1) It was formatted as a malware offer, not as a discussion item,
with NO apparent human generated content.
Am I the only one here who receives emails that consist of malware links?
2) I am not reading my email in a web browser. It is not much
difficulty to copy the URL into a browser, but I'd like a mention of
what it is before being told to "go there".
It only takes a few words to explain why we would be interested in it,
and some sign that it is from our friend, not a bot generated spoof to
get people to a hijacked site. (ransomware upped the stakes on such
things)
