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

As others have pointed out, it's actually: et al.

You're mad about nothing.

Congrats, you must not make any typos. I guess nobody else makes any tpyos either according to your statistics.

One wrong dot, one wrong space, suddenly legit text becomes an unexpected, unintended link.

Of course I make typos :) But .al is the top-level domain of a country. This is the original purpose of the system. If you type something that looks like a valid domain, and this is a valid domain, why not make it a link? Maybe I mistook your point all along. Why don't you think this should be a link?

I would agree that we have too many useless TLDs, and Google did help in spreading more domains, but I just don't think this is a case where it applies.

The original top level domains were .com, .net, .org, and .gov. Your fancy country top level domains were never part of the original internet plan.

Is that origin.al or not?

Whoops, my bad, I must have made a typo somewhere...
