I know it's a joke and I had a sensible chuckle, but if you want to routinely use it at work, just keep in mind that it's probably gonna make things worse.

Since you can't exhaustively enumerate every good thing or every bad thing on the internet, a lot of security detection mechanisms are based on heuristics. These heuristics produce a fair number of false positives as it is. If you bring the rate up, it just increases the likelihood that your security folks will miss bad things down the line.

I think the lesson here is that any link in an email is bad. We should just block all of them.

[DrJokepu]

Why not address the problem at its real source and just block emails entirely?

[whatevaa]

What is an alternative?

Come on man, don’t be so uptight. We can’t just be 100% max security all the time or no one will want to do business. A little bit of risk for clicking a link is worth the convenience.

I think you raise a good point, and I want to agree, but my knee-jerk feeling is that it's such a mess right now that it's just like a kid peeing in the ocean. Your point has convinced me to work on that.

In the meantime, does anyone else get a kick out of receiving emails from [e-mail] where they quarantine their own emails?

Edit: I see other people said things that are similar to a more mature version of my feeling. We need to address this in a way that addresses the threat of email links properly, not throw machine learning at guessing which are OK to click. BTW, I'm not implying that you're saying that is what should be done to solve the issue, but I'm sure it's behind the silly MS quarantine I mentioned, and when an email from the one person I email the most, who is also in my contacts, going to spam in iCloud.
